BEST of the BETS

I was looking at last two years data to see which UK jockeys have done best on short priced runners. Only included jockeys that had ridden at least 25 horses that were priced shorter than 3/1.

Data is for past two years, and past record is no guarantee that they will continue to do well in future but might be interesting to see how it goes.

1. Megan Nicholls - 17 winners & 7 places from 31 (54.84% strike rate), +22.51 LSP, A/E = 1.57
2. Ben Robinson - 23 w & 11 p from 49 (46.94% sr), +16.98 LSP, A/E = 1.31
3. Tony Hamilton - 24 w & 12 p from 51 (47.06% sr), +16.59 LSP, A/E = 1.30
4. Barry McHugh - 20 w & 15 p from 44 (45.45% sr), +15.77 LSP, A/E = 1.27
5. Cam Hardie - 15 w & 5 p from 34 (44.12% sr), +10.29 LSP, A/E = 1.27
6. Lewis Edmunds - 15 w & 9 p from 35 (42.86% sr), +11.39 LSP, A/E = 1.25

There are currently 3 qualifiers today, but market has to be watched till before the off as a slight drift could see them drop out of the price range.

Splinter @ 2/1 (1:50 Pontefract)
De Bruyn Horse @ 11/4 (2:10 Goodwood)
Chez Hans @ 5/2 (8:55 Chepstow)
