KTB Rider Profile

Rode around 30 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 7% of them — level with the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.01). First rides on a horse are a strength: 9% on the first captured pairing (165 rides). Rode mostly for G Cherel — 73% of rides in the window.

The read

In Group and Graded company the record reads poorly at 3.1% (n=65, Fair A/E 0.86). Rides in big fields of 14 or more are the standout value angle: 5.8% strikes only just below baseline, but Fair A/E 1.38 and +92.80 to a £1 stake over 104 rides — a record the market has persistently underpriced. G Cherel supplied 73% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (8.7%, A/E 1.05) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The record read poorly in Class 1 — 3.1% over 65 rides, 4.2pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the rider off a 61-180-day break: Fair A/E 0.44 across 50 rides (4% strike, −5.60 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperformed what the price implied. 2 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the Prix Le Touquet at Auteuil (FR) (Apr 2010, £29,735). Seasonally, the rider fired Apr–May.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 7.3% 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.

Showing the 60 most-raced of the 165 horses ridden in this window — each ran at least 2 times. 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 6 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.

Quick answers

What is Kevin Guignon's strike rate?
Kevin Guignon has won 22 of 301 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 7.3% (as at 6 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Kevin Guignon do best at?
Auteuil (FR) by strike rate: 14 wins from 219 rides (6.4%) 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 Kevin Guignon ride most for?
G Cherel, with 219 rides since 2008 — 73% of the total. That pairing has won 19 (8.7%).
What is Kevin Guignon's Fair A/E?
1.01, from 262 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.
