Lady Cecil
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 140 runners a season, almost all on the flat, winning with 16% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 0.88). New recruits from other yards win at 31% first time out (48 runs).
New recruits from other stables on their first run win at 31.3% (n=48, Fair A/E 1.48), but runners with a claiming rider up have been a poor signal at 5.9% (n=34, Fair A/E 0.42). Tom Queally rode 24% of the entries and matches the yard's average almost exactly (17.6%, A/E 0.95). The record read poorly over 6f – 7f — 8% over 75 runners, 7.9pts below the baseline. 12 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the Qipco Champion Stakes at Ascot (Oct 2014, £770,547). The stable star of the record was Noble Mission (GB) — 5 wins from 9 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fired May–Jul.
Yard patterns
the angles behind the record · vs 15.9% baselineEach tile is the record in that situation vs the 15.9% 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.

- What is Lady Cecil's Fair A/E?
- 0.88, from 427 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.
