What is Venetia Williams's strike rate?

Venetia Williams has won 959 of 6,820 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 14.1% (as at 10 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Venetia Williams do best at?

Hereford by strike rate: 53 wins from 300 runners (17.7%) 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 Venetia Williams?

Aidan Coleman, with 2,151 runners since 2008 — 32% of the total. That pairing has won 331 (15.4%).

Is Venetia Williams in form?

Too few runners in the last 14 days to read — 2 runners, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.

What is Venetia Williams's Fair A/E?

0.99, from 6,813 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 (23.8%, n=164), clear of the yard's 14.1% baseline. It is weakest at Aintree (5.1% over 197 runners) — the widest gap in the record. A horse having headgear put back on after a bare run has been a poor signal at 6.6% (n=136, Fair A/E 0.71). The market has consistently overbet a horse in first-time headgear: 7.2% strike, Fair A/E 0.63 and −81.13 to a £1 stake over 139 runners — those runners underperform what the price implies. Aidan Coleman rides 32% of the entries and matches the yard's average almost exactly (15.4%, A/E 1.02) — the market has that partnership priced right. The yard also reads well off a 0-7-day break (24.2%, n=211). The record reads poorly over 1m2f – 1m4f — 0% over 49 runners, 14.1pts below the baseline. 56 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the John Smith's Grand National Chase Grade 3 at Aintree (Apr 2009, £506,970). The stable star of the record: Houblon Des Obeaux (FR) — 10 wins from 58 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fires Nov–Dec.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 14.1% 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. The same beliefs, tested across every yard and every GB and Irish race since 2005: Racing myths.

Showing the 60 most-raced of the 602 horses sent out in this window — each ran at least 25 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, 36 arrived from another yard in our archive, most often from Artus Adeline De Boisbrunet (3) and G Macaire (3); 24 had their first archived run for this yard.

10 have since run for another yard; 50 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.

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.

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.

Quick answers

What is Venetia Williams's strike rate?: Venetia Williams has won 959 of 6,820 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 14.1% (as at 10 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Venetia Williams do best at?: Hereford by strike rate: 53 wins from 300 runners (17.7%) 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 Venetia Williams?: Aidan Coleman, with 2,151 runners since 2008 — 32% of the total. That pairing has won 331 (15.4%).
Is Venetia Williams in form?: Too few runners in the last 14 days to read — 2 runners, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.
What is Venetia Williams's Fair A/E?: 0.99, from 6,813 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.
