What is P D Deegan's strike rate?

P D Deegan has won 153 of 1,852 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 8.3% (as at 15 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does P D Deegan do best at?

Listowel by strike rate: 9 wins from 50 runners (18%) 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 P D Deegan?

Chris Hayes, with 574 runners since 2008 — 31% of the total. That pairing has won 62 (10.8%).

What is P D Deegan's Fair A/E?

0.98, from 1,847 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.

KTB Yard Profile

Sent out around 170 runners a season, almost all on the flat, winning with 8% of them — level with the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 0.98). The edge shows sharpest with horses returning fresh: 12% off breaks of two months or more (269 runs).

The read

The record is strongest at Listowel (18%, n=50), clear of the yard's 8.3% baseline. It is weakest at Killarney (0% over 46 runners) — the widest gap in the record. Horses returning fresh after 61+ days have been a positive signal at 11.5% (n=269, Fair A/E 1.41). Debutants are the standout value angle: 8.4% strikes only just above baseline, but Fair A/E 1.58 and +1.83 to a £1 stake over 214 runners — a record the market has persistently underpriced. The market has consistently overbet in Group and Graded company the record: 7.8% strike, Fair A/E 0.84 and −66.87 to a £1 stake over 166 runners — those runners underperformed what the price implied. Chris Hayes rode 31% of the entries and edges the yard's average (10.8% vs 8.3%, A/E 1.03) — the market has that partnership priced right. The yard also read well over 1m5f – 2m (15.1%, n=53) and off a break of 180+ days (14%, n=107). 13 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the Tattersalls Ireland Super Auction Sale Stakes at Fairyhouse (Sep 2010, £74,000). The stable star of the record was Midnight Soprano (IRE) — 8 wins from 17 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fired Mar–Apr.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 8.3% 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.

The 60 most-raced of 254 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, 6 arrived from another yard in our archive, most often from J G Burns (2); 54 had their first archived run for this yard.

23 have since run for another yard; 37 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.
