KTB Yard Profile

Sends out around 10 runners a season, almost all on the flat, winning with 8% of them — beating the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.08).

The read

The record is strongest at Bath (16.7%, n=30), clear of the yard's 7.8% baseline. It is weakest at Wolverhampton (AW) (1.8% over 55 runners) — the largest sample in the record, and the widest gap. Horses returning fresh after 61+ days have been a poor signal at 1.8% (n=57, Fair A/E 0.26). Runners with a claiming rider up are the standout value angle: 8.7% strikes only just above baseline, but Fair A/E 1.21 and +18.20 to a £1 stake over 127 runners — a record the market has persistently underpriced. Rhiain Ingram rides 32% of the entries and edges the yard's average (11% vs 7.8%, A/E 1.42) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The yard also reads well on Good to Firm going (18.5%, n=54) and off a 8-14-day break (16.2%, n=37). The record reads poorly on Standard (AW) going — 3.1% over 129 runners, 4.7pts below the baseline. The stable star of the record: Princess Way (IRE) — 5 wins from 12 runs for the yard.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 7.8% 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 56 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 56 horses listed, 26 arrived from another yard in our archive, most often from Karen George (11) and George Scott (2); 30 had their first archived run for this yard.

26 have since run for another yard, most often for Victor Dartnall (6) and Grace Harris (3); 30 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.

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 5 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 Paul George's strike rate?
Paul George has won 22 of 283 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 7.8% (as at 5 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Paul George do best at?
Bath by strike rate: 5 wins from 30 runners (16.7%) 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 Paul George?
Rhiain Ingram, with 91 runners since 2008 — 32% of the total. That pairing has won 10 (11%).
What is Paul George's Fair A/E?
1.08, from 282 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 5 November 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
