Lydia Pearce
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 100 runners a season, almost all on the flat, winning with 7% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 0.91).
The record is strongest at Yarmouth (11.6%, n=146) and Brighton (12.8%, n=47) — all clear of the yard's 6.6% baseline. New recruits from other stables on their first run struggle at 1.9% (n=53, Fair A/E 0.30). Simon Pearce rode 53% of the entries and matches the yard's average almost exactly (5.9%, A/E 0.81). The yard also read well on Good to Firm going (11.3%, n=186). The record read poorly off a break of 180+ days — 0% over 52 runners, 6.6pts below the baseline. The stable star of the record was Olney Lass (GB) — 7 wins from 52 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fired Jun–Jul.
Yard patterns
the angles behind the record · vs 6.6% baselineEach tile is the record in that situation vs the 6.6% 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 Lydia Pearce's Fair A/E?
- 0.91, from 897 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.
