KTB Yard Profile

Sends out around 80 runners a season, across both codes, winning with 9% of them — beating the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 1.27).

Deterministic profile computed from 392 archived runs (last 5 seasons) · updated 1 Nov 2026
KTB at a glance Wayne Hassett: 7% from 114 Claiming riders: 8.9%
The read

Horses returning fresh after 61+ days have been a poor signal at 5.4% (n=56, Fair A/E 0.95). Wayne Hassett rides 29% of the entries and matches the yard's average almost exactly (7%, A/E 0.89). The yard also reads well in Chase races (15.6%, n=45) and at trips under 6f (15.1%, n=53). The market has also underrated the yard off a 31-60-day break: Fair A/E 1.92 across 61 runners (14.8% strike, +29.41 to a £1 stake). The record reads poorly over 1m2f – 1m4f — 0% over 37 runners, 8.7pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the yard off a 8-14-day break: Fair A/E 0.76 across 87 runners (4.6% strike, −34.50 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperform what the price implies. One Group or Graded win sits in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the Dubai Duty Free Rockingham Handicap at Curragh (Jul 2023, £59,000). The stable star of the record: Harry's Hill (GB) — 10 wins from 67 runs for the yard.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 8.7% 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.

All 33 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 33 horses listed, 9 arrived from another yard in our archive, most often from John C McConnell (2); 24 had their first archived run for this yard.

None of them has a 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 1 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.

KTB’s figures on this yard’s runners since 17 Oct 2026: the KTB Selection in 1 run (won 0) · to 17 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 Martin Hassett's strike rate?
Martin Hassett has won 34 of 392 runners since 2022, a strike rate of 8.7% (as at 1 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Martin Hassett do best at?
Curragh by strike rate: 8 wins from 83 runners (9.6%) 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 Martin Hassett?
Wayne Hassett, with 114 runners since 2022 — 29% of the total. That pairing has won 8 (7%).
Is Martin Hassett in form?
Too few runners in the last 14 days to read — 4 runners, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.
What is Martin Hassett's Fair A/E?
1.27, from 392 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 1 November 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
