What is Stefano Cherchi's strike rate?

Stefano Cherchi has won 105 of 1,119 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 9.4% (as at 14 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Stefano Cherchi do best at?

Brighton by strike rate: 7 wins from 42 rides (16.7%) 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 Stefano Cherchi ride most for?

Marco Botti, with 330 rides since 2008 — 29% of the total. That pairing has won 38 (11.5%).

What is Stefano Cherchi's Fair A/E?

0.96, from 1,114 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.

KTB Rider Profile

Rides around 60 times a season, almost all on the flat, winning on 9% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 0.96). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 23% (95 rides).

KTB at a glance Fires Jun–Sep 34.5% when favourite Marco Botti: 11.5% from 330 LTO winners: 23.2% Claiming: 10.9% Rides the favourite in 8% of races

The read

Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 23.2% (n=95, Fair A/E 1.16), but rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 2.9% (n=102, Fair A/E 0.48). Marco Botti supplies 29% of the rides and edges the rider's average (11.5% vs 9.4%, A/E 1.13) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The rider also reads well off a 8-14-day break (15.6%, n=192). The record reads poorly over 1m5f – 2m — 0% over 49 rides, 9.4pts below the baseline. Seasonally, the rider fires Jun–Sep.

Each 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.
