KTB Rider Profile

Rides around 120 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 6% of them — level with the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 0.99). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 16% (31 rides). Rides mostly for Philip Fenton — 47% of rides in the window.

The read

It is weakest at Cork (0% over 36 rides) — the widest gap in the record. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 16.1% (n=31, Fair A/E 1.50), but first rides on a horse have been a poor signal at 2.3% (n=218, Fair A/E 0.56). The market has consistently overbet horses returning fresh after 61+ days: 3% strike, Fair A/E 0.69 and −30.50 to a £1 stake over 100 rides — those runners underperform what the price implies. Philip Fenton supplies 47% of the rides and edges the rider's average (8.3% vs 5.8%, A/E 1.15) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. 2 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the Race And Stay At Leopardstown Handicap Hurdle at Leopardstown (Feb 2026, £59,000). Seasonally, the rider fires Nov–Dec.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 5.8% 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 6 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.

KTB’s figures

the forward record · since 5 Oct 2026

KTB’s figures on this rider’s mounts since 17 Oct 2026: the KTB Selection in 1 run (won 0, 1 did not run) · to 17 Oct 2026.

Each pick was a KTB figure’s choice before the off — the published KTB Selection, the top-rated horse on KTB Rating, the fastest on KTB Speed — settled against the result the next morning and never worked out again; “did not run” is counted apart. GB and Irish races only. A record of weeks so far: read it as a count, not a verdict.

Quick answers

What is Niall Moore's strike rate?
Niall Moore has won 34 of 589 rides since 2022, a strike rate of 5.8% (as at 6 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Niall Moore do best at?
Kilbeggan by strike rate: 3 wins from 49 rides (6.1%) since 2022. 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 Niall Moore ride most for?
Philip Fenton, with 278 rides since 2022 — 47% of the total. That pairing has won 23 (8.3%).
Is Niall Moore in form?
Too few rides in the last 14 days to read — 3 rides, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.
What is Niall Moore's Fair A/E?
0.99, from 589 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 6 November 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
