KTB Yard Profile

Sends out around 80 runners a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning with 16% of them — level with the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.00).

The read

The record is strongest at Lyon Parilly (34.9%, n=63) and Pau (27%, n=115) — all clear of the yard's 15.7% baseline. Runners with a claiming rider up have been a poor signal at 6% (n=134, Fair A/E 0.80). The market has consistently overbet debutants: 12.7% strike, Fair A/E 0.85 and −29.10 to a £1 stake over 387 runners — those runners underperform what the price implies. Felix De Giles rides 21% of the entries and sits below the yard's average (12.3% vs 15.7%, A/E 0.94). The yard also reads well on Good going (34.3%, n=35) and on Good to Soft going (31%, n=71). 38 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the Prix Ferdinand Dufaure at Auteuil (FR) (May 2024, £138,913). The stable star of the record: Pythagore (GB) — 15 wins from 44 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fires Dec–Feb.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 15.7% baseline — descriptive splits with the sample always shown, for you to weigh. 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. The same beliefs, tested across every yard and every GB and Irish race since 2005: Racing myths.

Showing the 60 most-raced of the 415 horses sent out in this window — each ran at least 7 times. Horses with fewer runs aren't listed; search finds any horse since 2005. 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 60 horses listed, 5 arrived from another yard in our archive, most often from J Ortet (2); 55 had their first archived run for this yard.

14 have since run for another yard, most often for Richard J Bandey (3) and Pierre Raussin (2); 46 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 12 Nov 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 Emmanuel Clayeux's strike rate?
Emmanuel Clayeux has won 240 of 1,529 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 15.7% (as at 12 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Emmanuel Clayeux do best at?
Lyon Parilly by strike rate: 22 wins from 63 runners (34.9%) 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 Emmanuel Clayeux?
Felix De Giles, with 326 runners since 2008 — 21% of the total. That pairing has won 40 (12.3%).
Is Emmanuel Clayeux in form?
Too few runners in the last 14 days to read — 11 runners, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.
What is Emmanuel Clayeux's Fair A/E?
1.00, from 1,285 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 12 November 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
