What is John Harris's strike rate?

John Harris has won 56 of 810 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 6.9% (as at 15 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does John Harris do best at?

Market Rasen by strike rate: 5 wins from 45 runners (11.1%) 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 John Harris?

Mark Coumbe, with 105 runners since 2008 — 13% of the total. That pairing has won 6 (5.7%).

What is John Harris's Fair A/E?

0.88, from 808 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.

The read

Horses returning fresh after 61+ days have been a poor signal at 1.8% (n=110, Fair A/E 0.38). Mark Coumbe rode 13% of the entries and matches the yard's average almost exactly (5.7%, A/E 0.69). The yard also read well off a 0-7-day break (16.1%, n=93) and on Good to Soft going (12.5%, n=64). The record read poorly off a 61-180-day break — 1.6% over 62 runners, 5.3pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the yard off a 31-60-day break: Fair A/E 0.47 across 112 runners (2.7% strike, −90.50 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperformed what the price implied. The stable star of the record was Muntami (IRE) — 8 wins from 73 runs for the yard.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 6.9% 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.

The 60 most-raced of 70 horses sent out in this window. 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, 51 arrived from another yard in our archive, most often from Alan Swinbank (4) and Alan King (2); 9 had their first archived run for this yard.

24 have since run for another yard, most often for Richard Guest (3) and David Bourton (2); 36 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.

A going or a distance is named only where at least 100 progeny runs sit 3 or more points from the sire's own win rate. Distance bands cover Flat and jumps together.
