KTB Rider Profile

Rode around 30 times a season, almost all on the flat, winning on 7% of them — beating the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.18).

KTB at a glance Sylvester Kirk: 12.7% from 55
The read

First rides on a horse have been a poor signal at 2.9% (n=103, Fair A/E 0.63). Sylvester Kirk supplied 25% of the rides and beats the rider's average (12.7% vs 7.1%, A/E 1.85) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The rider also read well off a 8-14-day break (17.1%, n=41). The record read poorly over 1m – 1m1f — 0% over 35 rides, 7.1pts below the baseline. The standout partner of the record was See And Be Seen (GB) — 5 wins from 15 rides together.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 7.1% 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.

Quick answers

What is Renato Souza's strike rate?
Renato Souza has won 16 of 224 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 7.1% (as at 6 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Renato Souza do best at?
Wolverhampton (AW) by strike rate: 3 wins from 31 rides (9.7%) 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 Renato Souza ride most for?
Sylvester Kirk, with 55 rides since 2008 — 25% of the total. That pairing has won 7 (12.7%).
What is Renato Souza's Fair A/E?
1.18, from 223 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).
