Mr Daniel Williams

On normal ground conditions, Williams wins 2 from 5 races — that's 40%, or nearly 2 in every 5. For context, even the best jockeys in the country rarely sustain a win rate above 25 or 30 percent over a full season. A 40% figure on a particular surface, even across a small sample, is the kind of number that makes trainers take notice when conditions are right. The challenge now is turning that sharp conversion rate into a bigger body of evidence.

Across this season as a whole, the record sits at 2 winners from 14 rides — roughly 1 in every 7 — which is a solid foundation for someone still in their first year. The story here isn't the total number of wins, it's the trajectory: a jockey who already knows when he's at his best and, crucially, delivers when those conditions arrive.
