KTB Rider Profile

Rides around 40 times a season, almost all on the flat, winning on 5% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 0.86). Rides mostly for T G McCourt — 68% of rides in the window.

KTB at a glance T G McCourt: 4.8% from 125
The read

T G McCourt supplies 68% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (4.8%, A/E 0.80). The rider also reads well over 1m2f – 1m4f (8.2%, n=49). The record reads poorly over 1m – 1m1f — 0% over 46 rides, 4.9pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the rider off a 15-30-day break: Fair A/E 0.27 across 54 rides (1.9% strike, −44.00 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperform what the price implies.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 4.9% 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.

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.

Beneath it: every run by that sire's progeny in our archive since 2008, as at 12 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 2 runs (won 0) · top-rated on KTB Rating in 1 run (won 0) · fastest on KTB Speed in 2 runs (won 0) · to 6 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 Sadhbh Tormey's strike rate?
Sadhbh Tormey has won 9 of 185 rides since 2022, a strike rate of 4.9% (as at 12 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Sadhbh Tormey do best at?
Dundalk (AW) by strike rate: 2 wins from 59 rides (3.4%) since 2022. 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 Sadhbh Tormey ride most for?
T G McCourt, with 125 rides since 2022 — 68% of the total. That pairing has won 6 (4.8%).
Is Sadhbh Tormey in form?
Too few rides in the last 14 days to read — 5 rides, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.
What is Sadhbh Tormey's Fair A/E?
0.86, from 185 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.
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 12 November 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
