What is Brian Meehan's strike rate?

Brian Meehan has won 646 of 5,689 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 11.4% (as at 27 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Brian Meehan do best at?

Bath by strike rate: 44 wins from 196 runners (22.4%) 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 Brian Meehan?

Martin Dwyer, with 833 runners since 2008 — 15% of the total. That pairing has won 98 (11.8%).

Is Brian Meehan in form?

Too few runners in the last 14 days to read — 8 runners, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.

What is Brian Meehan's Fair A/E?

1.03, from 5,646 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 Bath (22.4%, n=196) and Ffos Las (21.7%, n=60) — all clear of the yard's 11.4% baseline. Debutants struggle at 6% (n=822, Fair A/E 0.96). Martin Dwyer rides 15% of the entries and matches the yard's average almost exactly (11.8%, A/E 1.04) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The yard also reads well on Firm going (22.7%, n=88). 77 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the Coral-Eclipse Stakes at Sandown (Jul 2006, £260,620). The stable star of the record: Spark Plug (IRE) — 6 wins from 36 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fires Dec–Feb.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 11.4% baseline — descriptive splits with the sample always shown, not tips. 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 917 horses sent out in this window — each ran at least 13 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, 5 arrived from another yard in our archive; 55 had their first archived run for this yard.

29 have since run for another yard, most often for David Nicholls (2) and David O'Meara (2); 31 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.

Quick answers

What is Brian Meehan's strike rate?: Brian Meehan has won 646 of 5,689 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 11.4% (as at 27 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Brian Meehan do best at?: Bath by strike rate: 44 wins from 196 runners (22.4%) 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 Brian Meehan?: Martin Dwyer, with 833 runners since 2008 — 15% of the total. That pairing has won 98 (11.8%).
Is Brian Meehan in form?: Too few runners in the last 14 days to read — 8 runners, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.
What is Brian Meehan's Fair A/E?: 1.03, from 5,646 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.
