KTB Rider Profile

Rode around 40 times a season, almost all on the flat, winning on 5% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 0.65). Rode mostly for Jim Goldie — 66% of rides in the window.

The read

The market has consistently overbet claiming rides: 5.3% strike, Fair A/E 0.66 and −86.75 to a £1 stake over 151 rides — those runners underperformed what the price implied. Jim Goldie supplied 66% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (4%, A/E 0.48). The rider also read well off a 0-7-day break (10%, n=30) and in Class 6 (8.8%, n=68). The record read poorly off a 15-30-day break — 0% over 40 rides, 5.2pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the rider in Class 5: Fair A/E 0.44 across 54 rides (3.7% strike, −45.25 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperformed what the price implied.

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 5.2% 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.

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 2008, as at 6 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.

Quick answers

What is Sean Mooney's strike rate?
Sean Mooney has won 8 of 154 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 5.2% (as at 6 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Sean Mooney do best at?
Ayr by strike rate: 2 wins from 39 rides (5.1%) 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 Sean Mooney ride most for?
Jim Goldie, with 101 rides since 2008 — 66% of the total. That pairing has won 4 (4%).
What is Sean Mooney's Fair A/E?
0.65, from 153 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 6 November 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
