KTB Rider Profile

Rides around 80 times a season, almost all on the flat, winning on 9% of them — beating the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 1.15). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 14% (36 rides).

The read

It is weakest at Curragh (1.9% over 52 rides) — the widest gap in the record. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 13.9% (n=36, Fair A/E 1.27). Mark Fahey supplies 16% of the rides and sits below the rider's average (3.3% vs 9.2%, A/E 0.46). The rider also reads well on Good going (15.1%, n=73) and off a 8-14-day break (13.8%, n=80). The record reads poorly on Soft going — 4.5% over 132 rides, 4.7pts below the baseline.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 9.2% 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 7 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 5 Oct 2026: the KTB Selection in 8 runs (won 1) · top-rated on KTB Rating in 4 runs (won 1) · fastest on KTB Speed in 10 runs (won 1) · to 4 Nov 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 Reese Holohan's strike rate?
Reese Holohan has won 35 of 379 rides since 2022, a strike rate of 9.2% (as at 7 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Reese Holohan do best at?
Dundalk (AW) by strike rate: 15 wins from 117 rides (12.8%) 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 Reese Holohan ride most for?
Mark Fahey, with 60 rides since 2022 — 16% of the total. That pairing has won 2 (3.3%).
Is Reese Holohan in form?
In the last 14 days: 20 rides, 2 winners, a strike rate of 10%. That is in line with the baseline of 9.2% since 2022.
What is Reese Holohan's Fair A/E?
1.15, from 379 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 7 November 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
