KTB Rider Profile

Rode around 50 times a season, almost all on the flat, winning on 8% of them — level with the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 0.97). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 15% (59 rides).

The read

The record is strongest at Hamilton (12.8%, n=39) and Southwell (AW) (11.8%, n=68) — all clear of the rider's 8.3% baseline. It is weakest at Ayr (4.2% over 72 rides) — the widest gap in the record. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 15.3% (n=59, Fair A/E 1.13), but rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 2.9% (n=138, Fair A/E 0.53). First rides on a horse are the standout value angle: 10.5% strikes only just above baseline, but Fair A/E 1.45 and +67.00 to a £1 stake over 266 rides — a record the market has persistently underpriced. David Barron supplied 29% of the rides and edges the rider's average (13% vs 8.3%, A/E 1.13) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 8.3% 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.

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.

Quick answers

What is Lee Newman's strike rate?
Lee Newman has won 53 of 640 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 8.3% (as at 6 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Lee Newman do best at?
Hamilton by strike rate: 5 wins from 39 rides (12.8%) 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 Lee Newman ride most for?
David Barron, with 185 rides since 2008 — 29% of the total. That pairing has won 24 (13%).
What is Lee Newman's Fair A/E?
0.97, from 633 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.
