KTB Rider Profile

Rides around 70 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 6% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 0.95). The edge shows sharpest with horses returning fresh: 9% off breaks of two months or more (100 runs). Rides mostly for Yannick Fouin — 66% of rides in the window.

The read

Horses returning fresh after 61+ days are the standout value angle: 9% strikes only just above baseline, but Fair A/E 1.27 and +18.90 to a £1 stake over 100 rides — a record the market has persistently underpriced. Yannick Fouin supplies 66% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (6.9%, A/E 1.08) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The rider also reads well off a break of 180+ days (15.2%, n=33). The record reads poorly off a 8-14-day break — 3% over 33 rides, 3.3pts below the baseline. 2 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the Prix Fifrelet at Auteuil (FR) (Dec 2024, £45,000). Seasonally, the rider fires Apr–May.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 6.3% baseline — descriptive splits with the sample always shown, not tips. 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.

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 27 Oct 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.

Quick answers

What is Alexandre Chesneau's strike rate?
Alexandre Chesneau has won 22 of 348 rides since 2022, a strike rate of 6.3% (as at 27 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Alexandre Chesneau do best at?
Auteuil (FR) by strike rate: 15 wins from 222 rides (6.8%) 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 Alexandre Chesneau ride most for?
Yannick Fouin, with 231 rides since 2022 — 66% of the total. That pairing has won 16 (6.9%).
Is Alexandre Chesneau in form?
Too few rides in the last 14 days to read — 5 rides, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.
What is Alexandre Chesneau's Fair A/E?
0.95, from 345 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 27 October 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
