The good thing nowadays is that all these stats are listed in the DRF. The combination of Contessa/Coa has won at a 16% clip in 2006-2007. The ROI with this combination is $1.56 for every $2.00 wagered. That means you would lose 22% on your money if you wagered on this combination every time in the last 1 1/2 years. The mutual take in New York is about 15% on WPS bets. That means that you would lose 15% on your money with the average trainer/jockey combination. Since you would lose 22% on your money with Contessa/Coa, that means that this has not been a good combination to bet on over the last 1 1/2 years. If you were an owner and had horses with Contessa, you couldn't complain about the Contessa/Coa combination over the last 1 1/2 years. Winning at a 16% clip is not bad. That is better than average. It's just from a betting perspective that the ROI is not very good with that combination.

I can't find any data on the Levine/Prado combo.
