Ben Haslam
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%".
Sends out around 170 runners a season, across both codes, winning with 11% of them — beating the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.11).
The record is strongest at Cartmel (20.5%, n=161) and Musselburgh (21%, n=81) — all clear of the yard's 11.2% baseline. Debutants struggle at 3.1% (n=163, Fair A/E 0.85). A horse in first-time headgear are the standout value angle: 10.9% strikes only just below baseline, but Fair A/E 1.41 and +31.25 to a £1 stake over 110 runners — a record the market has persistently underpriced. The market has consistently overbet new recruits from other stables on their first run: 5% strike, Fair A/E 0.72 and −89.25 to a £1 stake over 141 runners — those runners underperform what the price implies. Richie McLernon rides 20% of the entries and edges the yard's average (14.6% vs 11.2%, A/E 1.35) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The yard also reads well off a 0-7-day break (31.5%, n=73). 2 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the bet365 Summer Cup at Uttoxeter (Jun 2022, £42,713). The stable star of the record: Ever So Much (IRE) — 15 wins from 61 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fires Dec–Mar.
Yard patterns
the angles behind the record · vs 11.2% baselineEach tile is the record in that situation vs the 11.2% 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.

KTB’s figures
the forward record · since 5 Oct 2026KTB’s figures on this yard’s runners since 7 Oct 2026: the KTB Selection in 2 runs (won 0) · fastest on KTB Speed in 5 runs (won 1) · to 23 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 Ben Haslam's strike rate?
- Ben Haslam has won 363 of 3,245 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 11.2% (as at 30 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
- Which course does Ben Haslam do best at?
- Cartmel by strike rate: 33 wins from 161 runners (20.5%) since 2008. 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 Ben Haslam?
- Richie McLernon, with 649 runners since 2008 — 20% of the total. That pairing has won 95 (14.6%).
- Is Ben Haslam 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 Ben Haslam's Fair A/E?
- 1.11, from 3,223 runners 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.
