Owen Burrows
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%".
Sends out around 80 runners a season, almost all on the flat, winning with 19% of them — beating the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.10). The edge shows sharpest with horses returning fresh: 24% off breaks of two months or more (339 runs).
The record is strongest at Haydock (33.3%, n=42), clear of the yard's 19.3% baseline. It is weakest at Newmarket (11.8% over 85 runners) — the widest gap in the record. Horses returning fresh after 61+ days have been a positive signal at 23.9% (n=339, Fair A/E 1.29), but a horse in first-time headgear has been a poor signal at 8% (n=87, Fair A/E 0.65). In Group and Graded company the record are the standout value angle: 20% strikes only just above baseline, but Fair A/E 1.23 and +27.80 to a £1 stake over 245 runners — a record the market has persistently underpriced. Jim Crowley rides 31% of the entries and beats the yard's average (24.7% vs 19.3%, A/E 1.32) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The yard also reads well off a 61-180-day break (27.7%, n=159). 49 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the Qipco Champion Stakes at Ascot (Oct 2024, £737,230). The stable star of the record: Hukum (IRE) — 10 wins from 16 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fires Jul–Aug.
Yard patterns
the angles behind the record · vs 19.3% baselineEach tile is the record in that situation vs the 19.3% 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.

Quick answers
- What is Owen Burrows's strike rate?
- Owen Burrows has won 282 of 1,460 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 19.3% (as at 20 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
- Which course does Owen Burrows do best at?
- Haydock by strike rate: 14 wins from 42 runners (33.3%) 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 Owen Burrows?
- Jim Crowley, with 453 runners since 2008 — 31% of the total. That pairing has won 112 (24.7%).
- Is Owen Burrows in form?
- Too few runners in the last 14 days to read — 10 runners, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.
- What is Owen Burrows's Fair A/E?
- 1.10, from 1,451 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.
