KTB Rider Profile

Rides around 10 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 14% of them — beating the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.06). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 23% (30 rides). Rides mostly for David Pipe — 50% of rides in the window.

The read

It is weakest at Worcester (10% over 30 rides) — the largest sample in the record, and the widest gap. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 23.3% (n=30, Fair A/E 1.06), but horses returning fresh after 61+ days have been a poor signal at 3.1% (n=32, Fair A/E 0.35). David Pipe supplies 50% of the rides and beats the rider's average (19.1% vs 14%, A/E 1.25) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The rider also reads well in Chase races (20.5%, n=73) and off a 15-30-day break (18.9%, n=90). The record reads poorly in Hurdle races — 9.4% over 138 rides, 4.6pts below the baseline. The standout partner of the record: Jaipaletemps (FR) — 5 wins from 9 rides together.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 14% 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.

Showing the 60 most-raced of the 124 horses ridden in this window — each ran at least 1 time. Horses with fewer runs aren't listed; search finds any horse since 2005. 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.

Top line: the rider's own record with each sire's runners (win %, wins–runs), same window as the header; faded under 30 runs. Beneath it: every run by that sire's progeny in our archive since 2008, as at 13 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 7 Oct 2026: the KTB Selection in 3 runs (won 0) · top-rated on KTB Rating in 3 runs (won 0) · fastest on KTB Speed in 3 runs (won 0) · to 10 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 Rian Corcoran's strike rate?
Rian Corcoran has won 32 of 229 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 14% (as at 13 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Rian Corcoran do best at?
Worcester by strike rate: 3 wins from 30 rides (10%) 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 Rian Corcoran ride most for?
David Pipe, with 115 rides since 2008 — 50% of the total. That pairing has won 22 (19.1%).
Is Rian Corcoran in form?
Too few rides in the last 14 days to read — 10 rides, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.
What is Rian Corcoran's Fair A/E?
1.06, from 228 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 13 November 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
