KTB Rider Profile

Rode around 20 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 5% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 0.59). The edge shows sharpest with horses returning fresh: 7% off breaks of two months or more (41 runs). Rode mostly for Gary Moore — 49% of rides in the window.

The read

The market has consistently overbet claiming rides: 5.2% strike, Fair A/E 0.59 and −102.92 to a £1 stake over 155 rides — those runners underperformed what the price implied. Gary Moore supplied 49% of the rides and edges the rider's average (7.7% vs 5%, A/E 0.81). The rider also read well on Good going (9.4%, n=64) and in Class 5 (9.1%, n=44). The record read poorly on Good to Soft going — 0% over 30 rides, 5pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the rider off a 15-30-day break: Fair A/E 0.84 across 53 rides (7.5% strike, −24.50 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperformed what the price implied.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 5% 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.

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.

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 Joseph Akehurst's strike rate?
Mr Joseph Akehurst has won 8 of 159 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 5% (as at 6 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which yard does Mr Joseph Akehurst ride most for?
Gary Moore, with 78 rides since 2008 — 49% of the total. That pairing has won 6 (7.7%).
What is Mr Joseph Akehurst's Fair A/E?
0.59, from 158 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).
