What is Patrick Martin's strike rate?

Patrick Martin has won 21 of 410 runners since 2022, a strike rate of 5.1% (as at 15 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Patrick Martin do best at?

Dundalk (AW) by strike rate: 9 wins from 154 runners (5.8%) since 2022. 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 Patrick Martin?

Jack Kearney, with 89 runners since 2022 — 22% of the total. That pairing has won 5 (5.6%).

What is Patrick Martin's Fair A/E?

0.85, from 410 runners with a computed fair probability since 2022. 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.

The read

It is weakest at Gowran Park (0% over 34 runners) — the widest gap in the record. The market has consistently overbet runners with a claiming rider up: 4.6% strike, Fair A/E 0.77 and −127.00 to a £1 stake over 261 runners — those runners underperform what the price implies. Jack Kearney rides 22% of the entries and matches the yard's average almost exactly (5.6%, A/E 0.85). The yard also reads well off a 31-60-day break (8.5%, n=71). The record reads poorly on Heavy going — 0% over 32 runners, 5.1pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the yard off a 61-180-day break: Fair A/E 0.52 across 50 runners (2% strike, −21.00 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperform what the price implies. 3 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the Derrinstown Stud E.B.F. Birdcatcher Premier Nursery at Naas (Oct 2010, £45,500). The stable star of the record: Reckless Lad (IRE) — 10 wins from 78 runs for the yard.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 5.1% 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.

All 53 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 53 horses listed, 14 arrived from another yard in our archive, most often from Gavin Cromwell (3) and Ciaran Murphy (2); 39 had their first archived run for this yard.

21 have since run for another yard, most often for Cian Collins (3) and Andrew Kinirons (2); 32 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.

In our archive from its very first year (2005), so this career almost certainly began earlier than our record does. The figures above count 2005 onwards only — what the archive holds, not a full-career total. This card is the full archive census (2005→); the statistics in the header aggregate from 2008 — the floor that guarantees every horse a complete captured career — so this card can legitimately show more wins than the header.
