What is Gary Harrison's strike rate?

Gary Harrison has won 17 of 353 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 4.8% (as at 30 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Gary Harrison do best at?

Hamilton by strike rate: 1 wins from 31 runners (3.2%) 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.

What is Gary Harrison's Fair A/E?

0.80, from 348 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 at a glance Fires Jul–Aug

The read

Horses returning fresh after 61+ days have been a poor signal at 1.5% (n=65, Fair A/E 0.36). The market has consistently overbet runners with a claiming rider up: 4.2% strike, Fair A/E 0.73 and −9.50 to a £1 stake over 120 runners — those runners underperform what the price implies. The yard also reads well on Good to Firm going (9.6%, n=73). The record reads poorly off a break of 180+ days — 0% over 38 runners, 4.8pts below the baseline. Seasonally, the yard fires Jul–Aug.

Written from the figures on this page — every claim carries its sample. Descriptive, not a tip.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 4.8% 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 72 horses sent out in this window — each ran at least 1 time. 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, 41 arrived from another yard in our archive, most often from Keiran Burke (5) and Patrick Leech (4); 19 had their first archived run for this yard.

30 have since run for another yard, most often for Nick Littmoden (11) and W H Harrison (6); 30 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.
