KTB Yard Profile

Sends out around 10 runners a season, almost all on the flat, winning with 10% of them — beating the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.48).

Deterministic profile computed from 110 archived runs (lifetime window) · updated 13 Nov 2026
KTB at a glance Chris Hayes: 11.1% from 54
The read

Chris Hayes rides 49% of the entries and matches the yard's average almost exactly (11.1%, A/E 1.61) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The yard also reads well at trips under 6f (19.6%, n=51) and on Good going (16.3%, n=49). The record reads poorly over 6f – 7f — 2.6% over 39 runners, 7.4pts below the baseline. One Group or Graded win sits in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the Sky Bet Extra Places Every Day Premier Handicap at Curragh (Jun 2024, £29,500). The stable star of the record: Kendall Roy (GB) — 6 wins from 24 runs for the yard.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 10% 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 13 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 13 horses listed, 6 arrived from another yard in our archive, most often from Noel Meade (2); 7 had their first archived run for this yard.

4 have since run for another yard; 9 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.

Quick answers

What is Miss Kate McGivern's strike rate?
Miss Kate McGivern has won 11 of 110 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 10% (as at 13 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Who rides most for Miss Kate McGivern?
Chris Hayes, with 54 runners since 2008 — 49% of the total. That pairing has won 6 (11.1%).
What is Miss Kate McGivern's Fair A/E?
1.48, from 110 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 13 November 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
