What is Alastair Lidderdale's strike rate?

Alastair Lidderdale has won 89 of 1,018 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 8.7% (as at 6 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Alastair Lidderdale do best at?

Brighton by strike rate: 7 wins from 38 runners (18.4%) since 2008. Read from the 15 courses with the most runners on the same basis, and only those with at least 30 — a small sample cannot top the list, and a rarely-visited course is not in the comparison.

Who rides most for Alastair Lidderdale?

Amy Scott, with 103 runners since 2008 — 10% of the total. That pairing has won 11 (10.7%).

What is Alastair Lidderdale's Fair A/E?

1.19, from 1,011 runners with a computed fair probability since 2008. Fair A/E compares actual wins with a margin-stripped market expectation, so 1.00 is par: above it the wins came at bigger prices than the margin-free market implied, below it they did not.

The read

The record is strongest at Brighton (18.4%, n=38), clear of the yard's 8.7% baseline. Debutants struggle at 0% (n=36, Fair A/E 0.00). Horses returning fresh after 61+ days are the standout value angle: 8% strikes only just below baseline, but Fair A/E 1.39 and +4.25 to a £1 stake over 162 runners — a record the market has persistently underpriced. Amy Scott rode 10% of the entries and edges the yard's average (10.7% vs 8.7%, A/E 1.44) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The yard also read well in Chase races (16.3%, n=49). The record read poorly over 6f – 7f — 2.3% over 256 runners, 6.4pts below the baseline. The stable star of the record was Know No Fear (GB) — 7 wins from 53 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fired Apr–May.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 8.7% baseline — descriptive splits with the sample always shown, for you to weigh. Tiles under 30 runs render muted. Headgear figures use the true-first definition (first gear appearance in the captured career); returns are gear back on after a bare run. Claiming riders are runs where the booked rider carried a weight claim. Group / Graded covers pattern and listed races.

Showing the 60 most-raced of the 115 horses sent out in this window — each ran at least 5 times. Horses with fewer runs aren't listed; search finds any horse since 2005. Runs, wins and places only: a strike rate or a return on a handful of runs is noise, so none is quoted per horse — each horse's full record is on its own page.

Where they came from · where they went next

Of the 60 horses listed, 40 arrived from another yard in our archive, most often from David Barron (2) and Gary Moore (2); 20 had their first archived run for this yard.

27 have since run for another yard, most often for Paul Cole (5) and John Butler (4); 33 have no later run for another yard in our archive.

Read from each listed horse's whole archived career (2005 onwards), not only this window, and counted over the horses listed above, not the whole string. “First archived run” means our archive holds nothing earlier, not that the horse was unraced. A horse with no later run elsewhere may still be here, be off the track, or have run somewhere our archive does not cover — none of that is asserted.

In our archive from its very first year (2005), so this career almost certainly began earlier than our record does. The figures above count 2005 onwards only — what the archive holds, not a full-career total. This card is the full archive census (2005→); the statistics in the header aggregate from 2008 — the floor that guarantees every horse a complete captured career — so this card can legitimately show more wins than the header.
