What is Tom George's strike rate?

Tom George has won 618 of 4,428 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 14% (as at 5 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Tom George do best at?

Southwell by strike rate: 36 wins from 181 runners (19.9%) 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 Tom George?

Paddy Brennan, with 1,394 runners since 2008 — 31% of the total. That pairing has won 241 (17.3%).

Is Tom George 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 Tom George's Fair A/E?

1.00, from 4,408 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 Leicester (25.8%, n=120), clear of the yard's 14% baseline. It is weakest at Cheltenham (6.3% over 284 runners) — the largest sample in the record, and the widest gap. In Group and Graded company the record reads poorly at 7.7% (n=363, Fair A/E 0.85). The market has consistently overbet runners with a claiming rider up: 10.2% strike, Fair A/E 0.78 and −203.70 to a £1 stake over 521 runners — those runners underperform what the price implies. Paddy Brennan rides 31% of the entries and edges the yard's average (17.3% vs 14%, A/E 1.08) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The yard also reads well off a 0-7-day break (31.4%, n=35). The record reads poorly in Flat races — 0% over 39 runners, 14pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the yard in Class 1: Fair A/E 0.84 across 473 runners (7.6% strike, −206.14 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperform what the price implies. 28 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the Prix Maurice Gillois Grand Steeple-Chase 4 Ans at Auteuil (FR) (Nov 2011, £135,776). The stable star of the record: Kilbree Kid (IRE) — 10 wins from 41 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fires Aug–Sep.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 14% 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 440 horses sent out in this window — each ran at least 20 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, 18 arrived from another yard in our archive, most often from Emmanuel Clayeux (2); 42 had their first archived run for this yard.

22 have since run for another yard, most often for Noel George & Amanda Zetterholm (3); 38 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.

In our archive from its very first year (2005), so this career almost certainly began earlier than our record does. The figures above count 2005 onwards only — what the archive holds, not a full-career total. This card is the full archive census (2005→); the statistics in the header aggregate from 2008 — the floor that guarantees every horse a complete captured career — so this card can legitimately show more wins than the header.

KTB’s figures

the forward record · since 5 Oct 2026

KTB’s figures on this yard’s runners since 6 Oct 2026: the KTB Selection in 2 runs (won 0) · top-rated on KTB Rating in 3 runs (won 0) · fastest on KTB Speed in 3 runs (won 0) · to 1 Nov 2026.

Each pick was a KTB figure’s choice before the off — the published KTB Selection, the top-rated horse on KTB Rating, the fastest on KTB Speed — settled against the result the next morning and never worked out again; “did not run” is counted apart. GB and Irish races only. A record of weeks so far: read it as a count, not a verdict.

Quick answers

What is Tom George's strike rate?: Tom George has won 618 of 4,428 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 14% (as at 5 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Tom George do best at?: Southwell by strike rate: 36 wins from 181 runners (19.9%) 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 Tom George?: Paddy Brennan, with 1,394 runners since 2008 — 31% of the total. That pairing has won 241 (17.3%).
Is Tom George 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 Tom George's Fair A/E?: 1.00, from 4,408 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.
