What the number means

Strike rate is lay wins divided by settled lay wins plus lay losses. Voids, non-runners, pending rows, and SKIP decisions are not used to inflate the headline number.

What the number does not mean

A strong strike rate does not remove liability risk. Lay betting losses can be larger than the stake, and past results do not guarantee future performance.
