KTB Rider Profile

Rode around 90 times a season, winning on 7% of them — beating the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.20).

KTB at a glance Mrs Denise Foster: 8.7% from 69 Claiming: 7.5%
The read

The record is strongest at Fairyhouse (10.8%, n=37), clear of the rider's 7.3% baseline. It is weakest at Punchestown (1.8% over 57 rides) — the largest sample in the record, and the widest gap. Mrs Denise Foster supplied 16% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (8.7%, A/E 1.75) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The rider also read well off a 15-30-day break (15.5%, n=84) and off a 61-180-day break (10.3%, n=39). The record read poorly on Good to Soft going — 4.1% over 49 rides, 3.2pts below the baseline.

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 306 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.

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. This card is the full archive census (2005→); the statistics in the header aggregate from 2008 — the floor that guarantees every horse a complete captured career — so this card can legitimately show more wins than the header.

Quick answers

What is Mr A T Duff's strike rate?
Mr A T Duff has won 31 of 426 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 Mr A T Duff do best at?
Fairyhouse by strike rate: 4 wins from 37 rides (10.8%) 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 Mr A T Duff ride most for?
Mrs Denise Foster, with 69 rides since 2008 — 16% of the total. That pairing has won 6 (8.7%).
What is Mr A T Duff's Fair A/E?
1.20, from 426 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. Figures as at 6 November 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
