KTB Yard Profile

Sends out around 20 runners a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning with 5% of them — level with the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 0.99).

Deterministic profile computed from 369 archived runs (lifetime window) · updated 31 Oct 2026
KTB at a glance Fires Nov–Dec
The read

It is weakest at Punchestown (0% over 31 runners) — the widest gap in the record. Debutants struggle at 0% (n=45, Fair A/E 0.00). The market has consistently overbet runners with a claiming rider up: 3.7% strike, Fair A/E 0.74 and −103.50 to a £1 stake over 190 runners — those runners underperform what the price implies. The yard also reads well off a 31-60-day break (10.1%, n=79). The record reads poorly on Good going — 0% over 57 runners, 5.1pts below the baseline. The stable star of the record: Bothair Clei (IRE) — 5 wins from 34 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fires Nov–Dec.

Written from the figures on this page — every claim carries its sample. Descriptive, not a tip.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 5.1% 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.

All 56 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 56 horses listed, 11 arrived from another yard in our archive, most often from Gordon Elliott (2) and James Murphy (2); 45 had their first archived run for this yard.

17 have since run for another yard, most often for Fergal O'Brien (3) and James William Hannon (2); 39 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.

Beneath it: every run by that sire's progeny in our archive since 2008, as at 31 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.

KTB’s figures

KTB’s figures on this yard’s runners since 18 Oct 2026: the KTB Selection in 1 run (won 0, 1 did not run) · to 18 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 Daniel G Murphy's strike rate?
Daniel G Murphy has won 19 of 369 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 5.1% (as at 31 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Daniel G Murphy do best at?
Limerick by strike rate: 4 wins from 49 runners (8.2%) 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.
Is Daniel G Murphy in form?
Too few runners in the last 14 days to read — 1 runner, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.
What is Daniel G Murphy's Fair A/E?
0.99, from 369 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.
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 31 October 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
