KTB Rider Profile

Rode around 20 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 22% of them — beating the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.85). In Group and Graded company the record reads 26% (47 runs). Rode mostly for A Chaille-Chaille — 83% of rides in the window.

KTB at a glance A Chaille-Chaille: 23.9% from 88 Group/Graded: 25.5%
The read

In Group and Graded company the record reads well at 25.5% (n=47, Fair A/E 2.47), but rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 17.6% (n=34, Fair A/E 2.19). A Chaille-Chaille supplied 83% of the rides and edges the rider's average (23.9% vs 21.7%, A/E 1.92) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The rider also read well in Class 1 (25.5%, n=47) and on Heavy going (25%, n=76). 12 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the Prix Cambaceres - Grande Course de Haies des 3 Ans at Auteuil (FR) (Nov 2020, £75,013).

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 21.7% 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.

Showing the 60 most-raced of the 64 horses ridden in this window — each ran at least 1 time. Horses with fewer runs aren't listed; search finds any horse since 2005. 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 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 Thomas Coutant's strike rate?
Thomas Coutant has won 23 of 106 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 21.7% (as at 29 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Thomas Coutant do best at?
Auteuil (FR) by strike rate: 15 wins from 77 rides (19.5%) 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 Thomas Coutant ride most for?
A Chaille-Chaille, with 88 rides since 2008 — 83% of the total. That pairing has won 21 (23.9%).
What is Thomas Coutant's Fair A/E?
1.85, from 105 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 29 October 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
