G Cherel
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 310 runners a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning with 13% of them — level with the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.00). New recruits from other yards win at 16% first time out (57 runs).
The record is strongest at Pau (25.3%, n=99), clear of the yard's 13.3% baseline. A horse having headgear put back on after a bare run has been a poor signal at 7.1% (n=85, Fair A/E 0.68). Cyrille Gombeau rode 20% of the entries and edges the yard's average (17.2% vs 13.3%, A/E 0.93). The yard also read well on Good to Soft going (33.3%, n=78) and in Flat races (23.6%, n=322). 108 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the Prix Alain du Breil at Auteuil (FR) (Jun 2009, £117,961). The stable star of the record was Blue Dragon (FR) — 12 wins from 18 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fired Dec–Feb.
Yard patterns
the angles behind the record · vs 13.3% baselineEach tile is the record in that situation vs the 13.3% 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.

Quick answers
- What is G Cherel's strike rate?
- G Cherel has won 450 of 3,375 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 13.3% (as at 15 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
- Which course does G Cherel do best at?
- Pau by strike rate: 25 wins from 99 runners (25.3%) 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 G Cherel?
- Cyrille Gombeau, with 675 runners since 2008 — 20% of the total. That pairing has won 116 (17.2%).
- What is G Cherel's Fair A/E?
- 1.00, from 2,873 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.
