What is Robert Havlin's strike rate?

Robert Havlin has won 1,244 of 9,459 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 13.2% (as at 14 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Robert Havlin do best at?

Newcastle (AW) by strike rate: 64 wins from 236 rides (27.1%) 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 Robert Havlin ride most for?

John Gosden, with 2,101 rides since 2008 — 22% of the total. That pairing has won 473 (22.5%).

Is Robert Havlin in form?

In the last 14 days: 15 rides, 2 winners, a strike rate of 13.3%. That is in line with the baseline of 13.2% since 2008.

What is Robert Havlin's Fair A/E?

1.00, from 9,405 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.

KTB Rider Profile

Rides around 500 times a season, almost all on the flat, winning on 13% of them — level with the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.00). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 21% (934 rides).

The read

The record is strongest at Newcastle (AW) (27.1%, n=236), clear of the rider's 13.2% baseline. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 20.8% (n=934, Fair A/E 1.02), but rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 7.8% (n=1,093, Fair A/E 1.03). John Gosden supplies 22% of the rides and beats the rider's average (22.5% vs 13.2%, A/E 1.08) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. 70 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the bet365 Fillies' Mile at Newmarket (Oct 2022, £299,854). The standout partner of the record: Salute (IRE) — 7 wins from 41 rides together.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 13.2% 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.

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.

KTB’s figures on this rider’s mounts since 5 Oct 2026: the KTB Selection in 7 runs (won 3, 1 did not run) · top-rated on KTB Rating in 8 runs (won 2, 1 did not run) · fastest on KTB Speed in 9 runs (won 2, 1 did not run) · to 7 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 Robert Havlin's strike rate?: Robert Havlin has won 1,244 of 9,459 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 13.2% (as at 14 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Robert Havlin do best at?: Newcastle (AW) by strike rate: 64 wins from 236 rides (27.1%) 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 Robert Havlin ride most for?: John Gosden, with 2,101 rides since 2008 — 22% of the total. That pairing has won 473 (22.5%).
Is Robert Havlin in form?: In the last 14 days: 15 rides, 2 winners, a strike rate of 13.3%. That is in line with the baseline of 13.2% since 2008.
What is Robert Havlin's Fair A/E?: 1.00, from 9,405 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.
