KTB Rider Profile

Rides around 90 times a season, almost all on the flat, winning on 11% of them — beating the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 1.03). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 22% (55 rides). Rides mostly for Jim Goldie — 91% of rides in the window.

The read

Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 21.8% (n=55, Fair A/E 1.42), but rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 6.5% (n=62, Fair A/E 0.99). Jim Goldie supplies 91% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (12%, A/E 1.11) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The rider also reads well in Class 3 (16.7%, n=42) and in Class 5 (15.2%, n=99). The record reads poorly off a 31-60-day break — 2.3% over 43 rides, 8.6pts below the baseline. The standout partner of the record: Midnight Lion (GB) — 6 wins from 14 rides together.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 10.9% 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.

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 19 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 Lauren Young's strike rate?
Lauren Young has won 48 of 440 rides since 2022, a strike rate of 10.9% (as at 19 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Lauren Young do best at?
Musselburgh by strike rate: 8 wins from 57 rides (14%) 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 Lauren Young ride most for?
Jim Goldie, with 401 rides since 2022 — 91% of the total. That pairing has won 48 (12%).
Is Lauren Young in form?
Too few rides in the last 14 days to read — 12 rides, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.
What is Lauren Young's Fair A/E?
1.03, from 438 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.
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.
