What is Sam England's strike rate?

Which course does Sam England do best at?

Sedgefield by strike rate: 47 wins from 248 runners (19%) 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 Sam England?

Jonathan England, with 1,324 runners since 2008 — 58% of the total. That pairing has won 175 (13.2%).

Is Sam England in form?

In the last 14 days: 20 runners, 3 winners, a strike rate of 15%. That is in line with the baseline of 12.3% since 2008.

What is Sam England's Fair A/E?

1.04, from 2,285 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

Debutants struggle at 2% (n=49, Fair A/E 0.61). The market has consistently overbet new recruits from other stables on their first run: 5.2% strike, Fair A/E 0.72 and −115.75 to a £1 stake over 155 runners — those runners underperform what the price implies. Jonathan England rides 58% of the entries and matches the yard's average almost exactly (13.2%, A/E 1.04) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The yard also reads well beyond 3m (21.9%, n=196) and off a 0-7-day break (22%, n=127). The stable star of the record: Jez Bomb (GB) — 10 wins from 47 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fires May–Jun.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 12.3% 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.

Showing the 60 most-raced of the 203 horses sent out in this window — each ran at least 14 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, 46 arrived from another yard in our archive, most often from Amy Murphy (2) and Ben Case (2); 14 had their first archived run for this yard.

4 have since run for another yard; 56 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.
