Frank Sheridan
Fair A/E compares wins with a margin-stripped market expectation. Favourite-heavy samples — top yards, leading riders — naturally read a few points warm, so 1.05 means "beat the margin-free market read", not "the market underrates this by 5%".
Sent out around 50 runners a season, almost all on the flat, winning with 8% of them — beating the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.05). Horses in first-time headgear strike at 10% (49 runs, true-first definition).
Debutants struggle at 1.8% (n=57, Fair A/E 0.43). The market has consistently overbet horses returning fresh after 61+ days: 3.7% strike, Fair A/E 0.60 and −10.30 to a £1 stake over 135 runners — those runners underperformed what the price implied. Cristian Demuro rode 10% of the entries and edges the yard's average (11.3% vs 8.2%, A/E 1.55) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The yard also read well off a 0-7-day break (16%, n=81) and in Class 4 (16%, n=50). One Group or Graded win sits in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the totesportgames.com Wentworth Stakes at Doncaster (Nov 2008, £26,667). The stable star of the record was Ahlawy (IRE) — 9 wins from 53 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fired Apr–May.
Yard patterns
the angles behind the record · vs 8.2% baselineEach tile is the record in that situation vs the 8.2% 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.
