KTB Rider Profile

Rode around 30 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 6% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 0.80). Rode mostly for Trevor Wall — 43% of rides in the window.

The read

It is weakest at Worcester (0% over 46 rides) — the widest gap in the record. Rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 0% (n=49, Fair A/E 0.00). The market has consistently overbet claiming rides: 5.7% strike, Fair A/E 0.80 and −180.17 to a £1 stake over 348 rides — those runners underperformed what the price implied. Trevor Wall supplied 43% of the rides and sits below the rider's average (0.7% vs 5.7%, A/E 0.20). The rider also read well on Heavy going (16.2%, n=37) and over 2m1f – 2m4f (9.6%, n=114). The record read poorly over 2m5f – 3m — 0% over 44 rides, 5.7pts below the baseline.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 5.7% 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.

Showing the 60 most-raced of the 79 horses ridden in this window — each ran at least 1 time. Horses with fewer runs aren't listed; search finds any horse since 2005. 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.

Beneath it: every run by that sire's progeny in our archive since 2008, as at 28 Oct 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.

Quick answers

What is Josh Wall's strike rate?
Josh Wall has won 20 of 349 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 5.7% (as at 28 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Josh Wall do best at?
Uttoxeter by strike rate: 4 wins from 61 rides (6.6%) 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 Josh Wall ride most for?
Trevor Wall, with 150 rides since 2008 — 43% of the total. That pairing has won 1 (0.7%).
What is Josh Wall's Fair A/E?
0.80, from 349 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.
