Philip M Byrne
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 30 runners a season, across both codes, winning with 3% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 0.74). New recruits from other yards win at 7% first time out (31 runs).
It is weakest at Limerick (0% over 46 runners) — the widest gap in the record. New recruits from other stables on their first run win at 6.5% (n=31, Fair A/E 2.10). The market has consistently overbet horses returning fresh after 61+ days: 0.9% strike, Fair A/E 0.33 and −101.00 to a £1 stake over 112 runners — those runners underperform what the price implies. Andrew Ring rides 9% of the entries and matches the yard's average almost exactly (1.8%, A/E 0.71). The yard also reads well off a 0-7-day break (14.3%, n=42) and over 1m2f – 1m4f (6.4%, n=78). The record reads poorly off a 61-180-day break — 0% over 55 runners, 3.3pts below the baseline. The stable star of the record: Out On Friday (IRE) — 8 wins from 89 runs for the yard.
Yard patterns
the angles behind the record · vs 3.3% baselineEach tile is the record in that situation vs the 3.3% baseline — descriptive splits with the sample always shown, for you to weigh. 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 same beliefs, tested across every yard and every GB and Irish race since 2005: Racing myths.

- What is Philip M Byrne's Fair A/E?
- 0.74, from 636 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.
