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%".
KTB Yard Profile
Sends out around 30 runners a season, almost all on the flat, winning with 16% of them — beating the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 1.20). With a claiming rider up the record reads 24% (33 runs).

The read
Runners with a claiming rider up have been a positive signal at 24.2% (n=33, Fair A/E 2.14). The yard also reads well off a 31-60-day break (24.3%, n=37). The record reads poorly off a 15-30-day break — 9.8% over 51 runners, 5.7pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the yard over 1m2f – 1m4f: Fair A/E 0.83 across 59 runners (11.9% strike, −16.25 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperform what the price implies. 30 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the Tattersalls Ireland Sale Stakes at Curragh (Aug 2005, £147,000). The stable star of the record: Premio Loco (USA) — 13 wins from 44 runs for the yard.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 15.5% 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.

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.

Rows below n=30 are shown faded — a small sample is a fact, not a trend. Every figure carries its N.
All 25 horses sent out in this window. 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 25 horses listed, 4 arrived from another yard in our archive; 21 had their first archived run for this yard.
15 have since run for another yard, most often for Harry Eustace (5) and James Ferguson (3); 10 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.

In our archive from its very first year (2005), so this career almost certainly began earlier than our record does. The figures above count 2005 onwards only — what the archive holds, not a full-career total. This card is the full archive census (2005→); the statistics in the header aggregate from 2008 — the floor that guarantees every horse a complete captured career — so this card can legitimately show more wins than the header.
Progeny have won 9.1% of 14,899 runs since 2008 (930 horses). Weakest over 1m5f – 2m (all codes): 5.3% from 170.
Exceed and Excel (AUS)33.3% · 2–6
Progeny have won 11.8% of 16,019 runs since 2008 (1,161 horses). Strongest on Firm going: 20.7% from 198. Weakest on Soft going: 7.9% from 1,194.
Top line: the yard's own record with each sire's runners (win %, wins–runs), same window as the header; faded under 30 runs. Beneath it: every run by that sire's progeny in our archive since 2008, as at 15 Oct 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.
The record

The latest 50 of 3,496 archived runners, newest first. The full record runs from 5 January 2005 to 30 November 2022.
Drawn from the whole archive (2005 onwards), so it can include runs outside the window the header statistics cover. Non-runners are not listed. A finish shown in letters is a non-completion (F fell · UR unseated · PU pulled up · BD brought down).
Quick answers
What is Chris Wall's strike rate?
Chris Wall has won 20 of 129 runners since 2022, a strike rate of 15.5% (as at 15 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
What is Chris Wall's Fair A/E?
1.20, from 128 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.
