No rides from 1 Jan 2008, where our aggregate statistics normally begin — showing the full archive record instead, 2 Jan 2005 to 1 Jun 2007. Figures that need a horse's earlier runs (debuts, time since a run, first-time headgear, new connections, last-time-out winners) are left out: for runs this early our archive cannot see what came before.

KTB Rider Profile

Rode 185 times in our archive record (2005–2007), winning on 3% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across that record (Fair A/E 0.44).

The read

The market has consistently overbet rides in big fields of 14 or more: 3.3% strike, Fair A/E 0.58 and −114.00 to a £1 stake over 152 rides — those runners underperformed what the price implied. Paul Nolan supplied 28% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (3.9%, A/E 0.42). The rider also read well in Flat races (5.7%, n=35). The market has consistently overbet the rider over 2m1f – 2m4f: Fair A/E 0.00 across 53 rides (0% strike, −53.00 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperformed what the price implied.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 2.7% baseline — descriptive splits with the sample always shown, for you to weigh. Tiles under 30 runs render muted. Claiming rides are runs where the rider carried a weight claim. Group / Graded covers pattern and listed races. Tiles that depend on a horse's earlier runs (debuts, time off, first-time headgear, new connections, last-time-out winners) are not shown on an archive-era record: for runs this early our archive cannot see what came before.

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.

In our archive from its very first year (2005), so this career almost certainly began earlier than our record does. The figures above count 2005 onwards only — what the archive holds, not a full-career total. On this page the header statistics and this card both count from the archive floor (2005), so they agree.

Quick answers

What is Mr A Fitzgerald's strike rate?
Mr A Fitzgerald has won 5 of 185 rides between 2005 and 2007, a strike rate of 2.7% (as at 6 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive. Our archive begins in 2005, so anything earlier is not counted.
Which yard does Mr A Fitzgerald ride most for?
Paul Nolan, with 51 rides between 2005 and 2007 — 28% of the total. That pairing has won 2 (3.9%).
What is Mr A Fitzgerald's Fair A/E?
0.44, from 185 rides with a computed fair probability between 2005 and 2007. 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. Figures as at 6 November 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008). This profile has no runs from 2008, so every figure on this page counts from the start of the archive instead.
