Figures that need a horse's earlier runs (debuts, time since a run, first-time headgear, new connections, last-time-out winners) are left out: for runs this early our archive cannot see what came before.

KTB Rider Profile

Rode 184 times in our archive record (2005–2007), almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 4% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across that record (Fair A/E 0.71). Rode mostly for D J Wintle — 55% of rides in the window.

Deterministic profile computed from 184 archived runs (archive record 2005–2007) · updated 29 Oct 2026
KTB at a glance D J Wintle: 7.9% from 101 Claiming: 4.4%
The read

The market has consistently overbet claiming rides: 4.4% strike, Fair A/E 0.71 and −119.50 to a £1 stake over 181 rides — those runners underperformed what the price implied. D J Wintle supplied 55% of the rides and edges the rider's average (7.9% vs 4.3%, A/E 0.99) — the market has that partnership priced right.

Written from the figures on this page — every claim carries its sample. Descriptive, not a tip.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 4.3% baseline — descriptive splits with the sample always shown, not tips. Tiles under 30 runs render muted. Claiming rides are runs where the rider carried a weight claim. Group / Graded covers pattern and listed races. Tiles that depend on a horse's earlier runs (debuts, time off, first-time headgear, new connections, last-time-out winners) are not shown on an archive-era record: for runs this early our archive cannot see what came before.

Descriptive splits ranked by divergence × sample — insight, not instruction. Every angle carries its N; nothing under 30 runs qualifies. Rows within 2pts of the baseline appear only when the market-relative read (Fair A/E) diverges, and show it.

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. On this page the header statistics and this card both count from the archive floor (2005), so they agree.

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 2005, as at 29 Oct 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 Ryan Cummings's strike rate?
Ryan Cummings has won 8 of 184 rides between 2005 and 2007, a strike rate of 4.3% (as at 29 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive. Our archive begins in 2005, so anything earlier is not counted.
Which yard does Ryan Cummings ride most for?
D J Wintle, with 101 rides between 2005 and 2007 — 55% of the total. That pairing has won 8 (7.9%).
What is Ryan Cummings's Fair A/E?
0.71, from 183 rides with a computed fair probability between 2005 and 2007. 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 29 October 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008). This profile has no runs from 2008, so every figure on this page counts from the start of the archive instead.
