What is Darryll Holland's strike rate?

Darryll Holland has won 93 of 971 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 9.6% (as at 5 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Darryll Holland do best at?

Lingfield (AW) by strike rate: 14 wins from 101 runners (13.9%) 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 Darryll Holland?

Liam Wright, with 156 runners since 2008 — 16% of the total. That pairing has won 13 (8.3%).

What is Darryll Holland's Fair A/E?

0.98, from 964 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.

KTB Yard Profile

Sends out around 50 runners a season, almost all on the flat, winning with 10% of them — level with the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 0.98).

The read

It is weakest at Newmarket (0% over 39 runners) — the widest gap in the record. Debutants struggle at 1.7% (n=60, Fair A/E 0.37). The market has consistently overbet runners with a claiming rider up: 7.4% strike, Fair A/E 0.78 and −121.26 to a £1 stake over 282 runners — those runners underperform what the price implies. Liam Wright rides 16% of the entries and matches the yard's average almost exactly (8.3%, A/E 0.89). The yard also reads well off a 0-7-day break (18%, n=89). The stable star of the record: Lilkian (GB) — 9 wins from 76 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fires Mar–Apr.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 9.6% 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 96 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, 19 arrived from another yard in our archive, most often from Alice Haynes (2) and Roger Teal (2); 41 had their first archived run for this yard.

27 have since run for another yard, most often for James Owen (4) and Jim Boyle (2); 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.
