What is Jack R Barber's strike rate?

Jack R Barber has won 36 of 303 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 11.9% (as at 5 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Jack R Barber do best at?

Exeter by strike rate: 5 wins from 32 runners (15.6%) 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 Jack R Barber?

Nick Scholfield, with 189 runners since 2008 — 62% of the total. That pairing has won 23 (12.2%).

What is Jack R Barber's Fair A/E?

1.01, from 303 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 20 runners a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning with 12% of them — level with the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.01). The edge shows sharpest with horses returning fresh: 18% off breaks of two months or more (80 runs).

The read

Horses returning fresh after 61+ days have been a positive signal at 17.5% (n=80, Fair A/E 1.58). Nick Scholfield rides 62% of the entries and matches the yard's average almost exactly (12.2%, A/E 1.08) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The yard also reads well off a break of 180+ days (20.8%, n=53) and over 2m1f – 2m4f (16.1%, n=112). The record reads poorly over 1m5f – 2m — 5% over 60 runners, 6.9pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the yard off a 31-60-day break: Fair A/E 0.55 across 93 runners (6.5% strike, −69.59 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperform what the price implies.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 11.9% 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 61 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, 24 arrived from another yard in our archive, most often from Paul Nicholls (3) and Harry Fry (2); 36 had their first archived run for this yard.

19 have since run for another yard, most often for Anthony Honeyball (7) and Neil Mulholland (3); 41 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.
