KTB Rider Profile

Rides around 10 times a season, almost all on the flat, winning on 14% of them — beating the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.11).

Deterministic profile computed from 238 archived runs (lifetime window) · updated 14 Nov 2026
KTB at a glance Richard Fahey: 10.1% from 79 First rides: 14.9%
The read

Rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 11.1% (n=36, Fair A/E 1.44). First rides on a horse are the standout value angle: 14.9% strikes only just above baseline, but Fair A/E 1.16 and +51.00 to a £1 stake over 188 rides — a record the market has persistently underpriced. Richard Fahey supplies 33% of the rides and sits below the rider's average (10.1% vs 14.3%, A/E 0.94). The rider also reads well over 1m5f – 2m (21.2%, n=33) and on Good going (18.2%, n=55). The record reads poorly over 1m – 1m1f — 9.5% over 42 rides, 4.8pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the rider off a 8-14-day break: Fair A/E 0.74 across 52 rides (9.6% strike, −24.26 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperform what the price implies.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 14.3% 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.

Beneath it: every run by that sire's progeny in our archive since 2008, as at 14 Nov 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 Mr Eireann Cagney's strike rate?
Mr Eireann Cagney has won 34 of 238 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 14.3% (as at 14 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Mr Eireann Cagney do best at?
Wolverhampton (AW) by strike rate: 4 wins from 34 rides (11.8%) 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 Eireann Cagney ride most for?
Richard Fahey, with 79 rides since 2008 — 33% of the total. That pairing has won 8 (10.1%).
What is Mr Eireann Cagney's Fair A/E?
1.11, from 238 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 14 November 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
