Today’s conditions, measured
The ground, the time of year and the size of the fields, read against every British and Irish race since 2005.
The autumn changeover
15 October to 15 November, when the flat and jumps seasons overlap. This year so far (15 October to 8 November), against the same weeks in every year since 2005:
- The flat favourite: so far 525 runs, 165 won (too few yet for a rate); in these weeks since 2005 it won 29.8% and placed 59.9% of 12,877 runs, fair A/E 1.09; May to September, 31.6%.
- The jumps favourite: so far 484 runs, 178 won (too few yet for a rate); in these weeks since 2005 it won 35.0% and placed 61.5% of 13,269 runs, fair A/E 1.10; May to September, 33.0%.
- Races won at 10/1 or longer in these weeks since 2005: flat 21.6% of 11,761 races (May to September 18.0%); jumps 15.3% of 12,224 races (May to September 17.1%).
- The jumps favourite off 150 days or more in these weeks: won 36.8% and placed 61.9% of 4,543 runs, fair A/E 1.10; one that raced within 60 days won 34.2%.
On the record: “Racing gets hard to read around the autumn changeover” — The favourite in the autumn changeover window wins as often as in summer in both codes: the changeover is a story, not a season.
On the record: “A jumps horse needs the run after its summer break” — "Needs the run" is not in the numbers. The autumn jumps favourite off a summer break wins as often as one that raced within the last two months — the yards that send a fresh favourite out send it fit.
The favourite by seasonBig fields today
1 race today has 16 or more runners: Punchestown 3:45 (24 runners).
- The favourite in a field of 16 or more: won 24.1% and placed 55.0% of 23,512 runs, fair A/E 1.22.
- The second favourite: won 14.9% and placed 44.8% of 22,279 runs, fair A/E 1.16.
- The standard each-way terms: Punchestown 3:45: 4 places at 1/4 the odds (a handicap of 16 or more runners). "Placed" in the figures above means finishing in the places the standard terms pay.
- The top weight in a handicap of 14 or more: won 8.3% of 35,210 runs, fair A/E 1.03; the bottom weight won 4.3% of 34,078 runs, fair A/E 0.97.
On the record: “Top weight can't win a big handicap” — The top weight is the horse to fear, not to dismiss.

Racing myths, measured

Three figures of our own
Each built from our archive and explained on its own page.
KTB Fit
How well does it suit this race, today?
A 0–100 figure for how well a horse fits the race it is about to run, built from form and connections and frozen overnight. In each race it scores, the top-ranked runner is published as the KTB Selection and graded in public afterwards, win or lose.
KTB Rating
How good is it?
The level a horse has been running to: an average of up to its last six runs, the latest counting most.
KTB Speed
How fast is it?
A horse's best figure from up to its last three reliably timed runs.
Top on our figures: how they ran
In every British and Irish race we score, the horse top on KTB Rating and the fastest on KTB Speed before the off, and how each one ran. Past figures are free.
