KTB Rider Profile

Rides around 20 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 3% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 0.59).

The read

The market has consistently overbet horses returning fresh after 61+ days: 1.9% strike, Fair A/E 0.53 and −86.30 to a £1 stake over 104 rides — those runners underperform what the price implies. H Billot supplies 23% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (2.9%, A/E 0.38). The rider also reads well off a 8-14-day break (6.7%, n=45). The market has consistently overbet the rider off a 61-180-day break: Fair A/E 0.38 across 68 rides (1.5% strike, −58.50 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperform what the price implies.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 2.7% 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 188 horses ridden in this window — each ran at least 2 times. 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 12 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.

Quick answers

What is Benoit Claudic's strike rate?
Benoit Claudic has won 8 of 301 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 2.7% (as at 12 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Benoit Claudic do best at?
Compiegne by strike rate: 1 wins from 31 rides (3.2%) since 2008. 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 Benoit Claudic ride most for?
H Billot, with 69 rides since 2008 — 23% of the total. That pairing has won 2 (2.9%).
Is Benoit Claudic 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 Benoit Claudic's Fair A/E?
0.59, from 284 rides with a computed fair probability since 2008. 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.
