David Brace
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 20 runners a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning with 9% of them — level with the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.02).
Debutants struggle at 2.3% (n=43, Fair A/E 0.50). Connor Brace rides 54% of the entries and matches the yard's average almost exactly (9.6%, A/E 0.99) — the market has that partnership priced right. The yard also reads well off a 31-60-day break (17.1%, n=76) and over 2m5f – 3m (14.4%, n=118). The record reads poorly in NH Flat races — 2.9% over 34 runners, 6.1pts below the baseline. The stable star of the record: Pink Eyed Pedro (GB) — 6 wins from 45 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fires Jun–Jul.
Yard patterns
the angles behind the record · vs 9% baselineEach tile is the record in that situation vs the 9% 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.

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 David Brace's strike rate?
- David Brace has won 38 of 423 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 9% (as at 30 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
- Which course does David Brace do best at?
- Worcester by strike rate: 8 wins from 57 runners (14%) 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 David Brace?

- What is David Brace's Fair A/E?
- 1.02, from 421 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.
