KTB Rider Profile

Rides around 10 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 7% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 0.95). The edge shows sharpest with horses returning fresh: 10% off breaks of two months or more (41 runs). Rides mostly for Gordon Elliott — 40% of rides in the window.

The read

Rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 1.4% (n=73, Fair A/E 0.35). Gordon Elliott supplies 40% of the rides and beats the rider's average (13.6% vs 7.4%, A/E 1.47) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The rider also reads well off a 15-30-day break (10.6%, n=66). The record reads poorly in Chase races — 3.1% over 32 rides, 4.3pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the rider over 2m1f – 2m4f: Fair A/E 0.61 across 83 rides (4.8% strike, −63.17 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperform what the price implies.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 7.4% 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.

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.

Quick answers

What is Corey McGivern's strike rate?
Corey McGivern has won 15 of 203 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 7.4% (as at 14 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which yard does Corey McGivern ride most for?
Gordon Elliott, with 81 rides since 2008 — 40% of the total. That pairing has won 11 (13.6%).
What is Corey McGivern's Fair A/E?
0.95, from 203 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. Figures as at 14 November 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
