What is S. P. C. Woods's strike rate?

S. P. C. Woods has won 144 of 1,186 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 12.1% (as at 7 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does S. P. C. Woods do best at?

Newcastle (AW) by strike rate: 8 wins from 40 runners (20%) 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 S. P. C. Woods?

Robert Havlin, with 234 runners since 2008 — 20% of the total. That pairing has won 37 (15.8%).

Is S. P. C. Woods in form?

Too few runners in the last 14 days to read — 5 runners, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.

What is S. P. C. Woods's Fair A/E?

1.01, from 1,176 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

It is weakest at Newmarket (0% over 50 runners) — the widest gap in the record. In Group and Graded company the record reads poorly at 3.9% (n=51, Fair A/E 0.74). Robert Havlin rides 20% of the entries and edges the yard's average (15.8% vs 12.1%, A/E 1.24) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The record reads poorly in Class 2 — 2.6% over 78 runners, 9.5pts below the baseline. 2 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the EBF Stallions Highfield Farm Flying Fillies' Stakes at Pontefract (Aug 2022, £33,612). The stable star of the record: Appier (IRE) — 9 wins from 40 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fires Mar–May.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 12.1% 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.

Showing the 60 most-raced of the 114 horses sent out in this window — each ran at least 8 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, 2 arrived from another yard in our archive; 58 had their first archived run for this yard.

15 have since run for another yard, most often for Brett Crawford (2) and Jacqueline Coward (2); 45 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.
