KTB Rider Profile

Rode around 50 times a season, almost all on the flat, winning on 6% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 0.77).

The read

Horses returning fresh after 61+ days have been a poor signal at 0% (n=30, Fair A/E 0.00). The market has consistently overbet first rides on a horse: 4.7% strike, Fair A/E 0.73 and −16.00 to a £1 stake over 106 rides — those runners underperformed what the price implied. Luca Cumani supplied 27% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (6.7%, A/E 0.58). The rider also read well off a 31-60-day break (10%, n=30). The record read poorly over 1m – 1m1f — 2.2% over 45 rides, 3.6pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the rider over 6f – 7f: Fair A/E 0.66 across 87 rides (3.4% strike, −53.50 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperformed what the price implied.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 5.8% 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 106 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.

Quick answers

What is Lemos de Souza's strike rate?
Lemos de Souza has won 13 of 226 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 5.8% (as at 22 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Lemos de Souza do best at?
Chelmsford (AW) by strike rate: 3 wins from 39 rides (7.7%) 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 Lemos de Souza ride most for?
Luca Cumani, with 60 rides since 2008 — 27% of the total. That pairing has won 4 (6.7%).
What is Lemos de Souza's Fair A/E?
0.77, from 221 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.
