Johnny Farrelly
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 160 runners a season, winning with 11% of them — beating the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.08). With a claiming rider up the record reads 13% (351 runs).
It is weakest at Chepstow (0% over 53 runners) — the widest gap in the record. Debutants struggle at 2.8% (n=36, Fair A/E 0.38). Brendan Powell rode 18% of the entries and edges the yard's average (12.6% vs 10.5%, A/E 1.24) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The yard also read well off a 0-7-day break (34%, n=47) and off a 8-14-day break (16.9%, n=160). One Group or Graded win sits in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the Future Stars Intermediate Chase at Sandown (Nov 2016, £17,085). The stable star of the record was Love The Leader (IRE) — 10 wins from 53 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fired Sep–Nov.
Yard patterns
the angles behind the record · vs 10.5% baselineEach tile is the record in that situation vs the 10.5% 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.
