KTB Rider Profile

Rides around 40 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 19% of them — beating the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.10). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 25% (116 rides). Rides mostly for Joe Tizzard — 44% of rides in the window. The rider is quiet just now — 2 winners in the last fortnight, below their own baseline.

The read

The record is strongest at Fontwell (34.3%, n=35), clear of the rider's 18.6% baseline. It is weakest at Cheltenham (5.9% over 34 rides) — the widest gap in the record. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 25% (n=116, Fair A/E 1.05), but rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 4.8% (n=83, Fair A/E 0.62). Right now the rider is in a quiet spell: 2 from 17 rides in the last 14 days (11.8%, 6.8pts below the 18.6% baseline). Joe Tizzard supplies 44% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (17.8%, A/E 1.19) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The rider also reads well in Class 4 (27.9%, n=215). The record reads poorly in Class 1 — 6.7% over 60 rides, 11.9pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the rider on Soft going: Fair A/E 0.84 across 132 rides (12.1% strike, −51.60 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperform what the price implies. 3 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the Paddy Power Gold Cup Handicap Chase at Cheltenham (Nov 2024, £84,405). The standout partner of the record: Copperhead (GB) — 5 wins from 17 rides together. Seasonally, the rider fires Apr–May.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 18.6% 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.

Top line: the rider's own record with each sire's runners (win %, wins–runs), same window as the header; faded under 30 runs. Beneath it: every run by that sire's progeny in our archive since 2008, as at 15 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.

KTB’s figures

the forward record · since 5 Oct 2026

KTB’s figures on this rider’s mounts since 9 Oct 2026: the KTB Selection in 3 runs (won 0) · top-rated on KTB Rating in 2 runs (won 1) · fastest on KTB Speed in 5 runs (won 1) · to 10 Nov 2026.

Each pick was a KTB figure’s choice before the off — the published KTB Selection, the top-rated horse on KTB Rating, the fastest on KTB Speed — settled against the result the next morning and never worked out again; “did not run” is counted apart. GB and Irish races only. A record of weeks so far: read it as a count, not a verdict.

Quick answers

What is Freddie Gingell's strike rate?
Freddie Gingell has won 124 of 668 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 18.6% (as at 15 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Freddie Gingell do best at?
Fontwell by strike rate: 12 wins from 35 rides (34.3%) 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 Freddie Gingell ride most for?
Joe Tizzard, with 292 rides since 2008 — 44% of the total. That pairing has won 52 (17.8%).
Is Freddie Gingell in form?
In the last 14 days: 17 rides, 2 winners, a strike rate of 11.8%. That is below the baseline of 18.6% since 2008.
What is Freddie Gingell's Fair A/E?
1.10, from 666 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 15 November 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
