What is Sean Curran's strike rate?

Sean Curran has won 139 of 1,299 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 10.7% (as at 7 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Sean Curran do best at?

Wolverhampton (AW) by strike rate: 31 wins from 199 runners (15.6%) 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 Sean Curran?

James Doyle, with 105 runners since 2008 — 8% of the total. That pairing has won 18 (17.1%).

What is Sean Curran's Fair A/E?

1.12, from 1,295 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.

KTB Yard Profile

The read

Debutants struggle at 0% (n=44, Fair A/E 0.00). New recruits from other stables on their first run are the standout value angle: 10.4% strikes only just below baseline, but Fair A/E 1.42 and +5.58 to a £1 stake over 134 runners — a record the market has persistently underpriced. James Doyle rides 8% of the entries and beats the yard's average (17.1% vs 10.7%, A/E 1.55) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The record reads poorly in NH Flat races — 0% over 36 runners, 10.7pts below the baseline. 2 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the Coral Scottish Grand National Handicap Chase at Ayr (Apr 2008, £114,020). The stable star of the record: Unforgiving Minute (GB) — 8 wins from 17 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fires Feb–Apr.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 10.7% 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.

Showing the 60 most-raced of the 187 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, 48 arrived from another yard in our archive, most often from Paul Rich (4) and Barry Brennan (3); 12 had their first archived run for this yard.

29 have since run for another yard, most often for Andy Turnell (4) and Amy Murphy (2); 31 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.
