- Jockeys: starts, wins, strike rate, place rate and flat-stake return, season by season.
- Trainers: the same for trainers.
- Jockey × trainer: the combinations that ride together most.
- Market: over-round, favourites, and how well the odds predict the winner.
Definitions
- Start
- A horse that ran in a race that was run. Withdrawn horses and abandoned or void races are left out; horses that started but did not finish count as starts without a placing.
- Win
- Finished first. Both horses of a dead heat count.
- Placed
- Finished first, second or third.
- Odds
- The starting win odds printed with the result, per $1 with the stake included: 6.7 pays $6.70 for $1.
- Return
- What a flat $1 on every start would have made: −15% means 85 cents came back per dollar staked.
- Book
- The sum of 1/odds over a field. 1.23 is a win pool 23% over-round.
- Favourite
- The lowest odds in the race; joint favourites each count as a bet.
- Jockey, trainer
- Keyed by the Club's id where the site still links a profile, else by name; people who have left Hong Kong lose their id, never their record.
The tables are also published as JSON: jockeys, trainers, pairs, market, seasons.
