What is Peter Fahey's strike rate?

Peter Fahey has won 295 of 3,188 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 9.3% (as at 20 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Peter Fahey do best at?

Wexford by strike rate: 19 wins from 107 runners (17.8%) 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 Peter Fahey?

Kevin Sexton, with 444 runners since 2008 — 14% of the total. That pairing has won 45 (10.1%).

Is Peter Fahey in form?

Too few runners in the last 14 days to read — 12 runners, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.

What is Peter Fahey's Fair A/E?

1.05, from 3,186 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.

The read

The record is strongest at Wexford (17.8%, n=107), clear of the yard's 9.3% baseline. It is weakest at Leopardstown (3.3% over 181 runners) — the widest gap in the record. Kevin Sexton rides 14% of the entries and matches the yard's average almost exactly (10.1%, A/E 0.96). 26 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the Irish Stallion Farms EBF 'Northfields' Handicap at Curragh (Sep 2018, £88,500). The stable star of the record: Peregrine Run (IRE) — 20 wins from 69 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fires Jun–Jul.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 9.3% 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.

Showing the 60 most-raced of the 408 horses sent out in this window — each ran at least 15 times. Horses with fewer runs aren't listed; search finds any horse since 2005. 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, 23 arrived from another yard in our archive, most often from Mrs John Harrington (5) and G M Lyons (3); 37 had their first archived run for this yard.

23 have since run for another yard, most often for Gavin Cromwell (2) and Gordon Elliott (2); 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.

Quick answers

What is Peter Fahey's strike rate?: Peter Fahey has won 295 of 3,188 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 9.3% (as at 20 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Peter Fahey do best at?: Wexford by strike rate: 19 wins from 107 runners (17.8%) 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 Peter Fahey?: Kevin Sexton, with 444 runners since 2008 — 14% of the total. That pairing has won 45 (10.1%).
Is Peter Fahey in form?: Too few runners in the last 14 days to read — 12 runners, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.
What is Peter Fahey's Fair A/E?: 1.05, from 3,186 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.
