KTB Rider Profile

Rides around 60 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 17% of them — beating the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 1.15). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 20% (50 rides).

The read

Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 20% (n=50, Fair A/E 1.03), but rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 7.9% (n=38, Fair A/E 1.25). First rides on a horse are the standout value angle: 17.2% strikes only just above baseline, but Fair A/E 1.25 and +32.88 to a £1 stake over 192 rides — a record the market has persistently underpriced. Nigel & Willy Twiston-Davies supplies 23% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (17.8%, A/E 1.16) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The rider also reads well in Class 3 (25%, n=36) and over 2m1f – 2m4f (20%, n=85). The market has also underrated the rider off a 31-60-day break: Fair A/E 1.41 across 86 rides (19.8% strike, +23.18 to a £1 stake). The record reads poorly off a 61-180-day break — 11.8% over 34 rides, 4.8pts below the baseline.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 16.6% 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.

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 31 Oct 2026 — what they have done, not a forecast.

KTB’s figures

the forward record · since 5 Oct 2026

KTB’s figures on this rider’s mounts since 12 Oct 2026: the KTB Selection in 2 runs (won 0, 1 did not run) · top-rated on KTB Rating in 1 run (won 1) · fastest on KTB Speed in 1 run (won 0) · to 27 Oct 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 Toby McCain-Mitchell's strike rate?
Toby McCain-Mitchell has won 53 of 320 rides since 2022, a strike rate of 16.6% (as at 31 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which yard does Toby McCain-Mitchell ride most for?
Nigel & Willy Twiston-Davies, with 73 rides since 2022 — 23% of the total. That pairing has won 13 (17.8%).
Is Toby McCain-Mitchell 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 Toby McCain-Mitchell's Fair A/E?
1.15, from 319 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 31 October 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
