Strike rate
100.0%

Strike rate records how often a selected horse was beaten. It does not establish profit or, by itself, the quality of the original selection. Profit and loss depend on matched odds, stake, liability and commission.

Quick answer

The published record for 14 September 2026 contains 5 picks. 4 lays settled: 4 lay wins and 0 lay losses. 1 pick was void or a non-runner.

The settled strike rate is 100.0%. It counts lay wins and lay losses only; voids, non-runners and pending results are excluded.

Race-by-race review

Each note starts with the published Lay Picks outcome and then adds public race context. The aim is to make the result more useful than a bare win/loss table.

15:00 · Sedgefield

Uncle Al (IRE)

MW Civils & Groundworks Handicap Chase

Outcome
LAY WON
Recommended lay
5.30
Winner
Jeteye
Horse result
2nd of 5

What worked

Uncle Al was held up at the rear, moved into touch two fences out and made headway approaching the last. He kept on into second but could not reach Jeteye, finishing seven and a half lengths behind.

What to watch

He finished the race well and was the closest of the day's runners, although the winner was already beyond reach.

15:30 · Sedgefield

Maggies Boy (IRE)

Bill & Teresa Florentines 50th Anniversary Handicap Chase (Arc Summer Chase Series Qualifier)

Outcome
LAY WON
Recommended lay
10.50
Winner
Mr McWhinny
Horse result
5th of 5

What worked

Maggies Boy jumped to his right through the race and was ridden in last after four out. He was struggling after the next fence and finished a well-beaten fifth as Mr McWhinny won easily.

What to watch

His jumping made the task harder, but he was already losing touch before the closing stages.

16:30 · Sedgefield

Scoro (FR)

Sedgefield Racecourse For Outdoor Events Novices' Limited Handicap Hurdle

Outcome
LAY WON
Recommended lay
9.40
Winner
Littletown Lad
Horse result
pulled up before 2 out; 10 ran

What worked

Scoro raced prominently early but dropped to last when ridden after the third-last flight. He was pulled up before two out and never became a serious late threat to Littletown Lad.

What to watch

He held a useful early position, but his challenge ended quickly once pressure was applied.

17:00 · Kempton

Virtue Diligence

Unibet 40,000+ Live Streamed Events Handicap (London Stayers' Series Qualifier)

Outcome
NON-RUNNER
Recommended lay
4.40
Winner
Ramensky
Horse result
Non-runner (withdrawn after bolting before the start)
Result note
Late non-runner.

What happened

Virtue Diligence bolted before the start and was withdrawn, so the pick did not take part. Ramensky won the reduced two-runner race.

What to watch

The withdrawal was correctly treated as a non-runner and excluded from the settled strike rate.

20:30 · Kempton

Barry The Worm

Unibet Supports Safer Gambling Handicap

Outcome
LAY WON
Recommended lay
8.00
Winner
Happier
Horse result
6th of 12

What worked

Barry The Worm raced towards the rear, made headway two furlongs out and stayed on inside the final furlong. He was never nearer than sixth and finished seven and a quarter lengths behind Happier.

What to watch

He made some late progress, but the winner had already drawn clear and he was never a serious threat.

What we learned / things to watch

All four runners were beaten. Maggies Boy and Scoro were well held, while Barry The Worm's late progress never brought him into serious contention.

Uncle Al's second place was the closest call, so strong late headway remains worth noting even when the lay result is successful. The non-runner was correctly left out of the settled strike rate.
