Martin Todhunter
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 120 runners a season, winning with 9% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 0.89). New recruits from other yards win at 12% first time out (105 runs).
New recruits from other stables on their first run win at 12.4% (n=105, Fair A/E 1.87), but a horse having headgear put back on after a bare run has been a poor signal at 2.4% (n=124, Fair A/E 0.26). The market has consistently overbet runners with a claiming rider up: 8.9% strike, Fair A/E 0.83 and −223.87 to a £1 stake over 462 runners — those runners underperform what the price implies. Henry Brooke rides 12% of the entries and matches the yard's average almost exactly (8.3%, A/E 0.92). The record reads poorly in NH Flat races — 2.2% over 46 runners, 6.9pts below the baseline. One Group or Graded win sits in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the Hillhouse Quarry Handicap Chase at Ayr (Apr 2015, £22,780). The stable star of the record: Presenting Junior (IRE) — 10 wins from 45 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fires May–Jun.
Yard patterns
the angles behind the record · vs 9.1% baselineEach tile is the record in that situation vs the 9.1% 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.

KTB’s figures
the forward record · since 5 Oct 2026KTB’s figures on this yard’s runners since 17 Oct 2026: the KTB Selection in 1 run (won 0) · top-rated on KTB Rating in 2 runs (won 0) · fastest on KTB Speed in 1 run (won 0) · 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 Martin Todhunter's strike rate?
- Martin Todhunter has won 212 of 2,334 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 9.1% (as at 10 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
- Which course does Martin Todhunter do best at?
- Cartmel by strike rate: 17 wins from 124 runners (13.7%) 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 Martin Todhunter?
- Henry Brooke, with 290 runners since 2008 — 12% of the total. That pairing has won 24 (8.3%).
- Is Martin Todhunter in form?
- Too few runners in the last 14 days to read — 8 runners, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.
- What is Martin Todhunter's Fair A/E?
- 0.89, from 2,329 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.
