The broader numbers back that up. In just four years, Easterby has sent out 518 career winners, and over the last 12 months alone he has hit 126 from 1,371 runners — that is roughly 1 in every 11 races, or a 9% win rate across a very large string of horses. That volume matters. Plenty of small yards can post a tidy win rate by running only their best horses; doing it at scale, race after race, week after week, takes genuine depth and organisation.
The jockey who understands this operation best is David Allan. Their partnership has produced 57 wins from 540 rides together — winning at 11%, just a shade better than the yard's overall average — and that kind of sustained, high-volume collaboration tells you something. Allan is not just the stable jockey in name; he is clearly in sync with how Easterby thinks about placing horses and timing their runs.
One track worth watching is Leicester, where Easterby has turned out 6 winners from just 32 runners. That is nearly 1 in every 5 runners converting into a winner, which is a significantly better hit rate than his overall figures. Whether it is the track's configuration, the type of races programmed there, or simply that Easterby has learned exactly which horses travel well to Leicester, that kind of course form is the sort of edge that adds up over a season.
The one curio in the record is Red Spells Danger — a horse Easterby has run seven times without a win between them. It is a reminder that even the best operations have their puzzles, a horse that has not yet found a way to convert promise into a result. But with three top-level wins already banked in 2025, and a yard still only four years old, Easterby looks like someone whose most interesting chapter is still being written.
