KTB Rider Profile

Rides around 30 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 10% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 0.93). First rides on a horse are a strength: 12% on the first captured pairing (77 rides). Rides mostly for Paul Nicholls — 40% of rides in the window.

The read

Horses returning fresh after 61+ days have been a poor signal at 7.1% (n=42, Fair A/E 0.77). Paul Nicholls supplies 40% of the rides and beats the rider's average (18.2% vs 10.2%, A/E 1.24) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The rider also reads well in Class 4 (19.4%, n=36). The record reads poorly over 2m5f – 3m — 2.2% over 45 rides, 8pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the rider in Class 5: Fair A/E 0.41 across 59 rides (3.4% strike, −43.50 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperform what the price implies.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 10.2% 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 28 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 Angus Cheleda's strike rate?
Angus Cheleda has won 17 of 167 rides since 2022, a strike rate of 10.2% (as at 28 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which yard does Angus Cheleda ride most for?
Paul Nicholls, with 66 rides since 2022 — 40% of the total. That pairing has won 12 (18.2%).
What is Angus Cheleda's Fair A/E?
0.93, from 167 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 28 October 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
