KTB Rider Profile

Rode 282 times in our archive record (2005–2007), almost all on the flat, winning on 8% of them — beating the margin-free market read across that record (Fair A/E 1.21).

Deterministic profile computed from 282 archived runs (archive record 2005–2007) · updated 6 Nov 2026
KTB at a glance Paul Howling: 6.1% from 66 Claiming: 9.2%
The read

The record is strongest at Lingfield (AW) (14.3%, n=49), clear of the rider's 8.2% baseline. It is weakest at Wolverhampton (AW) (2.9% over 34 rides) — the widest gap in the record. Claiming rides are the standout value angle: 9.2% strikes only just above baseline, but Fair A/E 1.42 and +50.25 to a £1 stake over 238 rides — a record the market has persistently underpriced. Paul Howling supplied 23% of the rides and sits below the rider's average (6.1% vs 8.2%, A/E 0.88). The rider also read well over 1m – 1m1f (12.5%, n=72). The market has also underrated the rider in Class 5: Fair A/E 1.79 across 93 rides (10.8% strike, +49.50 to a £1 stake). The record read poorly on Good going — 2.7% over 37 rides, 5.5pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the rider over 1m2f – 1m4f: Fair A/E 0.62 across 50 rides (4% strike, −37.75 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperformed what the price implied.

Written from the figures on this page — every claim carries its sample. Descriptive, not a tip.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 8.2% baseline — descriptive splits with the sample always shown, for you to weigh. Tiles under 30 runs render muted. Claiming rides are runs where the rider carried a weight claim. Group / Graded covers pattern and listed races. Tiles that depend on a horse's earlier runs (debuts, time off, first-time headgear, new connections, last-time-out winners) are not shown on an archive-era record: for runs this early our archive cannot see what came before.

In our archive from its very first year (2005), so this career almost certainly began earlier than our record does. The figures above count 2005 onwards only — what the archive holds, not a full-career total. On this page the header statistics and this card both count from the archive floor (2005), so they agree.

Quick answers

What is Dean Corby's strike rate?
Dean Corby has won 23 of 282 rides between 2005 and 2007, a strike rate of 8.2% (as at 6 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive. Our archive begins in 2005, so anything earlier is not counted.
Which course does Dean Corby do best at?
Lingfield (AW) by strike rate: 7 wins from 49 rides (14.3%) between 2005 and 2007. 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 Dean Corby ride most for?
Paul Howling, with 66 rides between 2005 and 2007 — 23% of the total. That pairing has won 4 (6.1%).
What is Dean Corby's Fair A/E?
1.21, from 279 rides with a computed fair probability between 2005 and 2007. 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 6 November 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008). This profile has no runs from 2008, so every figure on this page counts from the start of the archive instead.
