Rowan Scott
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%".
Rides around 470 times a season, almost all on the flat, winning on 9% of them — level with the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 1.02). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 17% (212 rides). The rider is quiet just now — 2 winners in the last fortnight, below their own baseline.
The record is strongest at Hamilton (17.5%, n=103), clear of the rider's 9.4% baseline. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 17% (n=212, Fair A/E 1.12), but in Group and Graded company the record reads poorly at 3.6% (n=56, Fair A/E 0.79). Horses returning fresh after 61+ days are the standout value angle: 9.6% strikes only just above baseline, but Fair A/E 1.22 and +7.84 to a £1 stake over 303 rides — a record the market has persistently underpriced. Right now the rider is in a quiet spell: 2 from 33 rides in the last 14 days (6.1%, 3.3pts below the 9.4% baseline). Nigel Tinkler supplies 24% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (8.2%, A/E 0.86). 3 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the Sky Bet Stayers Handicap at York (Aug 2023, £51,540). The standout partner of the record: Isla Kai (IRE) — 6 wins from 24 rides together. Seasonally, the rider fires Feb–Mar.
Riding patterns
the angles behind the record · vs 9.4% baselineEach tile is the record in that situation vs the 9.4% 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.

KTB’s figures
the forward record · since 5 Oct 2026KTB’s figures on this rider’s mounts since 5 Oct 2026: the KTB Selection in 12 runs (won 2, 1 did not run) · top-rated on KTB Rating in 5 runs (won 0, 1 did not run) · fastest on KTB Speed in 4 runs (won 0) · to 31 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.

- What is Rowan Scott's Fair A/E?
- 1.02, from 2,332 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.
