What is Bertrand Lestrade's strike rate?

Bertrand Lestrade has won 59 of 506 rides since 2022, a strike rate of 11.7% (as at 30 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Bertrand Lestrade do best at?

Compiegne (FR) by strike rate: 12 wins from 102 rides (11.8%) 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 Bertrand Lestrade ride most for?

Francois Nicolle, with 118 rides since 2022 — 23% of the total. That pairing has won 23 (19.5%).

What is Bertrand Lestrade's Fair A/E?

0.94, from 501 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.

KTB Rider Profile

Rides around 100 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 12% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 0.94). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 23% (61 rides).

The read

Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 23% (n=61, Fair A/E 1.02), but rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 3.3% (n=123, Fair A/E 0.44). The market has consistently overbet horses returning fresh after 61+ days: 10.1% strike, Fair A/E 0.79 and −62.20 to a £1 stake over 159 rides — those runners underperform what the price implies. Francois Nicolle supplies 23% of the rides and beats the rider's average (19.5% vs 11.7%, A/E 1.07) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The rider also reads well over 2m5f – 3m (16.3%, n=86). The record reads poorly off a break of 180+ days — 5.9% over 51 rides, 5.8pts below the baseline. 141 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the Grand Steeple-Chase de Paris at Auteuil (FR) (May 2021, £329,464). The standout partner of the record: Bel La Vie (FR) — 13 wins from 28 rides together. Seasonally, the rider fires Apr–Jun.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 11.7% 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.
