KTB Rider Profile

Rides around 50 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 21% of them — beating the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 1.11). First rides on a horse are a strength: 26% on the first captured pairing (93 rides). Rides mostly for James Owen — 83% of rides in the window.

The read

First rides on a horse have been a positive signal at 25.8% (n=93, Fair A/E 1.41), but horses returning fresh after 61+ days have been a poor signal at 12.8% (n=39, Fair A/E 0.90). James Owen supplies 83% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (22.1%, A/E 1.12) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The rider also reads well on Good to Soft going (27.6%, n=58) and in Class 4 (24.8%, n=117). The record reads poorly in Class 3 — 12.9% over 31 rides, 7.7pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the rider in Chase races: Fair A/E 0.83 across 69 rides (14.5% strike, −27.36 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperform what the price implies.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 20.6% baseline — descriptive splits with the sample always shown, for you to weigh. Tiles under 30 runs render muted. First rides are the first captured pairing of horse and rider; last-time-out winners are horses whose previous captured run was a win; claiming rides are runs where the rider carried a weight claim. Group / Graded covers pattern and listed races.

Showing the 60 most-raced of the 96 horses ridden in this window — each ran at least 1 time. Horses with fewer runs aren't listed; search finds any horse since 2005. Runs, wins and places only: a strike rate or a return on a handful of runs is noise, so none is quoted per horse — each horse's full record is on its own page.

Beneath it: every run by that sire's progeny in our archive since 2008, as at 3 Nov 2026 — what they have done, not a forecast. A going or a distance is named only where at least 100 progeny runs sit 3 or more points from the sire's own win rate. Distance bands cover Flat and jumps together.

KTB’s figures on this rider’s mounts since 7 Oct 2026: the KTB Selection in 1 run (won 0) · fastest on KTB Speed in 2 runs (won 0) · to 23 Oct 2026.

Each pick was a KTB figure’s choice before the off — the published KTB Selection, the top-rated horse on KTB Rating, the fastest on KTB Speed — settled against the result the next morning and never worked out again; “did not run” is counted apart. GB and Irish races only. A record of weeks so far: read it as a count, not a verdict.

Quick answers

What is Alex Chadwick's strike rate?
Alex Chadwick has won 55 of 267 rides since 2022, a strike rate of 20.6% (as at 3 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Alex Chadwick do best at?
Fakenham by strike rate: 6 wins from 30 rides (20%) since 2022. Read from the 15 courses with the most rides on the same basis, and only those with at least 30 — a small sample cannot top the list, and a rarely-visited course is not in the comparison.
Which yard does Alex Chadwick ride most for?
James Owen, with 222 rides since 2022 — 83% of the total. That pairing has won 49 (22.1%).
Is Alex Chadwick in form?
Too few rides in the last 14 days to read — 1 ride, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.
What is Alex Chadwick's Fair A/E?
1.11, from 267 rides with a computed fair probability since 2022. Fair A/E compares actual wins with a margin-stripped market expectation, so 1.00 is par: above it the wins came at bigger prices than the margin-free market implied, below it they did not.
Fair A/E compares wins with a margin-stripped market expectation. Favourite-heavy samples — top yards, leading riders — naturally read a few points warm, so 1.05 means "beat the margin-free market read", not "the market underrates this by 5%". Three sample sizes are reported and never blended: runs (n), the ROI basis (n at SP), and the fair-A/E basis (n with a computed fair probability).

Strike rate is wins over all runs (n). ROI is £1 level stakes at SP over runs with a parseable price (n at SP). Fair A/E is wins over margin-stripped market expectation, over runs with a computed fair probability (n fair). The three Ns can legitimately differ and are always shown. Figures as at 3 November 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
