Over distances of greater than 2200m when Beadman rides a first OR second favourite he has an amazing 35.29% win strike rate, and a 69.12% place strike rate with a win POT of 33.53%
Remember we are not talking favourites only, but first and second favourites combined.
His strike rate is phenomenal!
This includes his failures on Lonhro
Add to this his home tracks only, and I'll kiss his butt in Bourke Street.
....Not really
His strike rate on Sprinters and milers is only just above average, which is why his mounts are so hard to make a profit from - they are overbet in general.
That was a 2000m race he was beaten on Lonhro and it was a margin of 6 lengths, horses don't get beaten 6 lengths because of jockey error unless he sat him 5 wide the entire journey, which of course, Dynamic Darren didn't
