KTB Rider Profile

The read

Horses returning fresh after 61+ days have been a poor signal at 2.3% (n=43, Fair A/E 0.41). Peter Winks supplied 97% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (9.1%, A/E 0.99) — the market has that partnership priced right. The rider also read well off a 8-14-day break (13%, n=69) and in Chase races (12.4%, n=97). The record read poorly off a 31-60-day break — 2.4% over 41 rides, 7pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the rider in Class 3: Fair A/E 0.74 across 67 rides (6% strike, −3.00 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperformed what the price implied. The standout partner of the record was Chestnut Ben (IRE) — 6 wins from 36 rides together.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 9.4% baseline — descriptive splits with the sample always shown, not tips. 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.

Quick answers

What is Ryan Winks's strike rate?
Ryan Winks has won 27 of 286 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 9.4% (as at 22 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which yard does Ryan Winks ride most for?
Peter Winks, with 276 rides since 2008 — 97% of the total. That pairing has won 25 (9.1%).
What is Ryan Winks's Fair A/E?
1.04, from 286 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 22 October 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
