What is David Gallon's strike rate?

David Gallon has won 15 of 164 rides since 2022, a strike rate of 9.1% (as at 1 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does David Gallon do best at?

Auteuil (FR) by strike rate: 7 wins from 106 rides (6.6%) 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 David Gallon ride most for?

A Chaille-Chaille, with 103 rides since 2022 — 63% of the total. That pairing has won 9 (8.7%).

Is David Gallon in form?

Too few rides in the last 14 days to read — 2 rides, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.

What is David Gallon's Fair A/E?

0.79, from 162 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 30 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 9% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 0.79). The edge shows sharpest with horses returning fresh: 17% off breaks of two months or more (47 runs). Rides mostly for A Chaille-Chaille — 63% of rides in the window.

Deterministic profile computed from 164 archived runs (last 5 seasons) · updated 1 Nov 2026

KTB at a glance Fresh horses: 17% A Chaille-Chaille: 8.7% from 103 First rides: 11.8%

The read

Horses returning fresh after 61+ days have been a positive signal at 17% (n=47, Fair A/E 1.53), but rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 2.6% (n=39, Fair A/E 0.44). A Chaille-Chaille supplies 63% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (8.7%, A/E 0.74). The rider also reads well off a 61-180-day break (23.5%, n=34). The record reads poorly off a 15-30-day break — 4.3% over 46 rides, 4.8pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the rider in Class 1: Fair A/E 0.49 across 60 rides (5% strike, −32.90 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperform what the price implies. 10 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the Prix Montgomery Handicap) at Auteuil (FR) (Oct 2019, £66,892).

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 9.1% 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.
