What is Alastair Ralph's strike rate?

Alastair Ralph has won 98 of 947 runners since 2022, a strike rate of 10.3% (as at 24 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Alastair Ralph do best at?

Stratford by strike rate: 7 wins from 52 runners (13.5%) since 2022. Read from the 15 courses with the most runners 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.

Who rides most for Alastair Ralph?

Jonathan Burke, with 201 runners since 2022 — 21% of the total. That pairing has won 22 (10.9%).

Is Alastair Ralph in form?

Too few runners in the last 14 days to read — 7 runners, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.

What is Alastair Ralph's Fair A/E?

0.93, from 946 runners 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.

KTB Yard Profile

Sends out around 190 runners a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning with 10% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 0.93). Horses with headgear back on after a bare run strike at 13% (30 runs).

The read

A horse having headgear put back on after a bare run has been a positive signal at 13.3% (n=30, Fair A/E 1.53), but new recruits from other stables on their first run struggle at 5.6% (n=54, Fair A/E 0.54). Jonathan Burke rides 21% of the entries and matches the yard's average almost exactly (10.9%, A/E 0.74). The record reads poorly on Standard (AW) going — 3.3% over 30 runners, 7pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the yard in Flat races: Fair A/E 0.46 across 52 runners (3.8% strike, −36.00 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperform what the price implies. The stable star of the record: Butler's Brief (IRE) — 8 wins from 41 runs for the yard.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 10.3% baseline — descriptive splits with the sample always shown, not tips. Tiles under 30 runs render muted. Headgear figures use the true-first definition (first gear appearance in the captured career); returns are gear back on after a bare run. Claiming riders are runs where the booked rider carried a weight claim. Group / Graded covers pattern and listed races.

Showing the 60 most-raced of the 130 horses sent out in this window — each ran at least 6 times. 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.

Where they came from · where they went next

Of the 60 horses listed, 28 arrived from another yard in our archive, most often from Andrew Balding (2) and David Simcock (2); 32 had their first archived run for this yard.

13 have since run for another yard, most often for Oliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero (2); 47 have no later run for another yard in our archive.

Read from each listed horse's whole archived career (2005 onwards), not only this window, and counted over the horses listed above, not the whole string. “First archived run” means our archive holds nothing earlier, not that the horse was unraced. A horse with no later run elsewhere may still be here, be off the track, or have run somewhere our archive does not cover — none of that is asserted.
