KTB Rider Profile

Rides around 170 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 13% of them — beating the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 1.07). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 28% (90 rides). Rides mostly for Dan Skelton — 87% of rides in the window. The rider is quiet just now — 2 winners in the last fortnight, below their own baseline.

The read

The record is strongest at Fakenham (23.3%, n=30), clear of the rider's 12.5% baseline. It is weakest at Worcester (2.3% over 44 rides) — the widest gap in the record. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 27.8% (n=90, Fair A/E 1.46), but rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 5.3% (n=114, Fair A/E 0.98). Right now the rider is in a quiet spell: 2 from 22 rides in the last 14 days (9.1%, 3.4pts below the 12.5% baseline). Dan Skelton supplies 87% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (13.7%, A/E 1.13) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. 4 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the Coral Gold Cup Handicap Chase at Newbury (Nov 2025, £142,375).

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 12.5% 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.

This filter uses derived form angles computed for 60.7% of the archive so far (as at 9 Nov 2026); the sample will grow as sequencing completes.
Descriptive splits ranked by divergence × sample — insight, not instruction. Every angle carries its N; nothing under 30 runs qualifies. Rows within 2pts of the baseline appear only when the market-relative read (Fair A/E) diverges, and show it.

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 9 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 13 Oct 2026: the KTB Selection in 3 runs (won 1) · top-rated on KTB Rating in 3 runs (won 1) · fastest on KTB Speed in 4 runs (won 2) · to 5 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 Tristan Durrell's strike rate?
Tristan Durrell has won 105 of 840 rides since 2022, a strike rate of 12.5% (as at 9 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Tristan Durrell do best at?
Fakenham by strike rate: 7 wins from 30 rides (23.3%) 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 Tristan Durrell ride most for?
Dan Skelton, with 731 rides since 2022 — 87% of the total. That pairing has won 100 (13.7%).
Is Tristan Durrell in form?
In the last 14 days: 22 rides, 2 winners, a strike rate of 9.1%. That is below the baseline of 12.5% since 2022.
What is Tristan Durrell's Fair A/E?
1.07, from 838 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 9 November 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
