What is Tyler Saunders's strike rate?

Tyler Saunders has won 35 of 369 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 9.5% (as at 14 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Tyler Saunders do best at?

Lingfield (AW) by strike rate: 3 wins from 42 rides (7.1%) 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 Tyler Saunders ride most for?

Jonathan Portman, with 171 rides since 2008 — 46% of the total. That pairing has won 18 (10.5%).

What is Tyler Saunders's Fair A/E?

0.96, from 368 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 20 times a season, almost all on the flat, winning on 10% 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 24% (41 rides). Rides mostly for Jonathan Portman — 46% of rides in the window.

KTB at a glance Fires May–Jul Jonathan Portman: 10.5% from 171 LTO winners: 24.4%

The read

It is weakest at Windsor (3% over 33 rides) — the widest gap in the record. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 24.4% (n=41, Fair A/E 1.29), but rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 2.7% (n=37, Fair A/E 0.44). Jonathan Portman supplies 46% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (10.5%, A/E 0.97) — the market has that partnership priced right. The rider also reads well off a 31-60-day break (17.7%, n=62) and in Class 5 (15.4%, n=149). The market has also underrated the rider on Good to Firm going: Fair A/E 1.44 across 74 rides (16.2% strike, +7.80 to a £1 stake). The standout partner of the record: New Heights (GB) — 5 wins from 9 rides together. Seasonally, the rider fires May–Jul.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 9.5% 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.
