What is Gordon Elliott's strike rate?

Gordon Elliott has won 2,909 of 19,184 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 15.2% (as at 7 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Gordon Elliott do best at?

Perth by strike rate: 227 wins from 797 runners (28.5%) 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 Gordon Elliott?

Jack Kennedy, with 3,481 runners since 2008 — 18% of the total. That pairing has won 656 (18.8%).

Is Gordon Elliott in form?

In the last 14 days: 52 runners, 9 winners, a strike rate of 17.3%. That is in line with the baseline of 15.2% since 2008.

What is Gordon Elliott's Fair A/E?

1.03, from 19,175 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.

KTB Yard Profile

Sends out around 1,010 runners a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning with 15% of them — beating the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.03). Debutants are a strength: 17% on first career starts (1,158 runs).

The read

The record is strongest at Perth (28.5%, n=797), clear of the yard's 15.2% baseline. Runners with a claiming rider up have been a poor signal at 11.2% (n=3,762, Fair A/E 0.99). Jack Kennedy rides 18% of the entries and edges the yard's average (18.8% vs 15.2%, A/E 1.05) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The yard also reads well in Class 4 (32.2%, n=737). 474 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the Randox Health Grand National Handicap Chase at Aintree (Apr 2018, £500,000). The stable star of the record: Don Cossack (GER) — 16 wins from 26 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fires Oct–Nov.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 15.2% 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.

Showing the 60 most-raced of the 2,110 horses sent out in this window — each ran at least 30 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, 30 arrived from another yard in our archive, most often from Mrs Denise Foster (3) and Andrew Balding (2); 30 had their first archived run for this yard.

19 have since run for another yard, most often for Mrs Denise Foster (3); 41 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.

KTB’s figures on this yard’s runners since 5 Oct 2026: the KTB Selection in 21 runs (won 7, 6 did not run) · top-rated on KTB Rating in 23 runs (won 6, 3 did not run) · fastest on KTB Speed in 11 runs (won 6, 2 did not run) · to 5 Nov 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 Gordon Elliott's strike rate?: Gordon Elliott has won 2,909 of 19,184 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 15.2% (as at 7 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Gordon Elliott do best at?: Perth by strike rate: 227 wins from 797 runners (28.5%) 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 Gordon Elliott?: Jack Kennedy, with 3,481 runners since 2008 — 18% of the total. That pairing has won 656 (18.8%).
Is Gordon Elliott in form?: In the last 14 days: 52 runners, 9 winners, a strike rate of 17.3%. That is in line with the baseline of 15.2% since 2008.
What is Gordon Elliott's Fair A/E?: 1.03, from 19,175 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.
