KTB Yard Profile

Sends out around 60 runners a season, almost all on the flat, winning with 8% of them — beating the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 1.10). In Group and Graded company the record reads 13% (31 runs).

The read

In Group and Graded company the record reads well at 12.9% (n=31, Fair A/E 1.95), but debutants struggle at 4.4% (n=45, Fair A/E 1.16). Ben Coen rides 36% of the entries and beats the yard's average (12.9% vs 7.8%, A/E 1.40) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The yard also reads well over 1m – 1m1f (12.3%, n=57) and in Class 1 (12.9%, n=31). The record reads poorly off a 61-180-day break — 2.7% over 37 runners, 5.1pts below the baseline. 4 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the Coolmore Stud Little Big Bear Stakes at Cork (IRE) (Aug 2026, £42,000).

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 7.8% 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 57 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 57 horses listed, 12 arrived from another yard in our archive, most often from Michael McCullagh (2); 45 had their first archived run for this yard.

10 have since run for another yard; 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.

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 21 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.

Quick answers

What is Daniel McLoughlin's strike rate?
Daniel McLoughlin has won 22 of 281 runners since 2022, a strike rate of 7.8% (as at 21 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Daniel McLoughlin do best at?
Curragh by strike rate: 4 wins from 62 runners (6.5%) 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 Daniel McLoughlin?
Ben Coen, with 101 runners since 2022 — 36% of the total. That pairing has won 13 (12.9%).
Is Daniel McLoughlin in form?
Too few runners in the last 14 days to read — 13 runners, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.
What is Daniel McLoughlin's Fair A/E?
1.10, from 281 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.
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 21 October 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
