KTB Rider Profile

Rides around 30 times a season, winning on 19% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 0.88). The edge shows sharpest with horses returning fresh: 27% off breaks of two months or more (33 runs). Rides mostly for Gordon Elliott — 77% of rides in the window.

The read

Horses returning fresh after 61+ days have been a positive signal at 27.3% (n=33, Fair A/E 1.35), but rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 5.1% (n=39, Fair A/E 0.34). Gordon Elliott supplies 77% of the rides and edges the rider's average (21.2% vs 19%, A/E 0.89). The rider also reads well on Soft going (24%, n=75). 26 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the National Hunt Challenge Cup Amateur Riders' Novices' Chase at Cheltenham (Mar 2019, £75,491).

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 19% 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.

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.

Beneath it: every run by that sire's progeny in our archive since 2008, as at 28 Oct 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 J J Codd's strike rate?
Mr J J Codd has won 28 of 147 rides since 2022, a strike rate of 19% (as at 28 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which yard does Mr J J Codd ride most for?
Gordon Elliott, with 113 rides since 2022 — 77% of the total. That pairing has won 24 (21.2%).
What is Mr J J Codd's Fair A/E?
0.88, from 147 rides with a computed fair probability since 2022. 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 28 October 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
