 Australia's "winningest" jockeys last week and Winning Jockeys back-on

Here is the list of jockeys who rode at least a double at any of the Tab meetings last week, along with the trainers for whom they rode the winners. This table is colour coded to highlight the outperformers and it is definitely worth noting these riders and combinations.

It is also worth noting when a jockey who has previously won on a horse is replacing a rider who has not done so. Whilst history shows that this is not a prime indicator of likely success, it is significant in some cases.

Last season (2023-2024) there were 1,925 such situations, and from these there were 319 winners, a 16.6% win rate, at odds up to 70/1. That is not an insignificant strike rate and some trainer/jockey combinations are very much worth noting under this scenario.

The list below shows the winning horses last week that raced with a (previous) winning jockey replacing a rider who had not previously been successful on the horse. The success rate last week was similar to the longer-term average at 16.2%.

Matrix - day by day analysis of Tuesday and Wednesday racing

Australia's "winningest" trainers last week - SPOTLIGHT on Matthew Dunn

Here is the list of trainers who trained at least a double at any of the Tab meetings last week, along with the jockeys for who rode the winners. This table is colour coded to highlight the outperformers and it is worth noting these stables and the combinations.

A key factor to be considered in selection-making is the stable, and the trainer-jockey combination. The Wizard weekly "winningest" trainer report is a valuable guide as to which stable/trainer and jockey-trainer combination is currently in form.

To add to this weekly insight, we SPOTLIGHT a particular stable and post an in-depth coverage of its record with different riders, over an extended period. This week, the Matthew Dunn stable. (Note the record of success with Nash Rawiller when the stable has a runner in Sydney.)

(If you would like to see a particular trainer profiled in SPOTLIGHT let me know via Everyrace Support contact.)

Warren Block's Daily Report - Thursday, 26 June 2025

• The First Six Months - The Wizard Matrix Report - results stable and successful
• Matrix day-by-day results for Thursday and Friday racing
• Wizard Freebie - Wizard Matrix Report
• Wizard Ratings, Raceday, Matrix, and Selectives Results

The First Six Months - The Wizard Matrix Report results stable and successful

This is the second longer-term results summary of the performance of key elements of Wizard's Matrix  Report since the report's introduction last December. We publish these longer-term results summaries so that subscribers can see the results of the Wizard's ratings options, and Report-content, and thereby formulate a selecting and betting strategy that suits them individually. The Wizard ratings should not be seen as "tips", rather as objective assessments that can be used to inform one's own judgement as to the relative chances of the runners in a race.

The key ratings included in Matrix are the Wizard Weight Rating (WRat), consistently successful since first published in the Wizard newspaper in 1988, the Wizard Raceday Rating, and the Wizard Matrix Rating (MaxR) that integrates the key elements of weight-rating/form/market-moves into one ratings figure.

(One point worth noting is that these latest results confirm the finding of the first Quarterly report that showed the MaxR 100 pointer outperforms the traditional WRat1 100 pointer by some 18%; now after 8,545 races have been rated.)

Matrix also highlights likely "outperformers" by identifying Selectives. Recognizing that the vast majority of recreational punters (and 99.9% of punters would fall into this category) do not have the time available to undertake a comprehensive analysis of all possible betting opportunities, Wizard developed its Selectives options. Selectives aims to highlight possible "outperformers", thereby reducing the number of bets, and at the same time, improving the overall strike rate.

The results for the first six months show that this approach has been successful, with the Selectives consistently outperforming base ratings.

The results above show the monthly strike rates for the three key ratings for the six months that Matrix has been available to Wizard users. The top-rated runner strike rates are shown for the Wizard WRat 100 pointer, the Raceday Qualifier, and MaxR 100 pointer. The top-two strike rate is also shown, as well as the top-three and top-four WRat runners. The results achieved by the three Selectives options are also shown,

The highest strike rate for each option is colour coded: blue for the single top-rated option, and green for the top-two rated option, with the best overall single-selection strike rated being colour-coded yellow.

The results to date show that Wizard continues to deliver a remarkably consistent level of performance, with both the month-on-month and overall results being remarkably stable. Now looking forward to the next six months and the full-year report with renewed confidence.

There is one basic Matrix report, which is posted to the everyrace website twice on race morning (to allow for scratchings to be processed).

• around 10:30am (incorporating scratchings for NSW, Vic, Tasmania, Queensland, NT)
• around 12 noon (updated for scratchings from W.A.)

There are three variations of the Matrix report.

• Wizard Matrix (First Four)
• Wizard Matrix (Full Field)
• Wizard Matrix (Abridged)

• Wizard Magic Report - Unique content continues to deliver
• Wizard Freebie - Magic Report
• Matrix day-by-day results for Saturday and Sunday racing
• Wizard Ratings, Raceday, Matrix, and Selectives Results

 Wizard Magic Report - Unique content continues to deliver

The content of the Wizard Magic Report is unique in its presentation of trainer oriented and market related information.

To provide an insight into the significance of the information in the daily Wizard Magic report here is an update on its results covering the period since the Magic report was introduced, 14 September 2024.

For comparison purposes, the base figure, as always, is the Wizard WRat 100 pointer result. During the period under review there were 13,328 WRat 100 pointers included in the Magic reports. These runners delivered a strong 27.8% win strike rate. This is the base rate for comparison purposes.

Now, with Magic, you can overlay other factors on the WRat 100 and potentially improve this strike rate.

For example, in the 3,169 races where the WRat 100 is shown as having firmed by 3% or more overnight and/or on race-morning, the strike rate improves to 37.1%

In the 658 races where the WRat 100 is shown as having firmed by 3% or more overnight and/or on race-morning, AND is flagged (F) as a Filter qualifier, the strike rate improves to 41.6%

In the 638 races where the WRat 100 is shown as having firmed by 3% or more overnight and/or on race-morning, AND is flagged (N) as a No-Negatives qualifier, the strike rate improves to 35.4%

In the 914 races where the WRat 100 is shown as having firmed by 3% or more overnight and/or on race-morning, AND is flagged (FN) as both a Filter qualifier and a No-Negatives qualifier, the strike rate improves to 38.7%

In the 2,263 races where the WRat 100 is shown as being the biggest overnight and/or on race-morning firmer the strike rate improves to 40.0%

Hopefully, these updated stats will help you focus on the unique information to be found in the daily Wizard Magic reports.
