Richard Hannon
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 810 runners a season, almost all on the flat, winning with 12% of them — level with the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 0.98). Horses with headgear back on after a bare run strike at 25% (53 runs).
The record is strongest at Brighton (20.9%, n=292), clear of the yard's 12.3% baseline. A horse having headgear put back on after a bare run has been a positive signal at 24.5% (n=53, Fair A/E 2.22). Sean Levey rides 23% of the entries and matches the yard's average almost exactly (13.2%, A/E 1.04) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. 182 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at Ascot (Oct 2019, £623,810). The stable star of the record: Oh This Is Us (IRE) — 16 wins from 85 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fires Jan–Mar.
Yard patterns
the angles behind the record · vs 12.3% baselineEach tile is the record in that situation vs the 12.3% 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.

Drawn from the whole archive (2005 onwards), so it can include runs outside the window the header statistics cover. Non-runners are not listed. A finish shown in letters is a non-completion (F fell · UR unseated · PU pulled up · BD brought down).
KTB’s figures
the forward record · since 5 Oct 2026KTB’s figures on this yard’s runners since 5 Oct 2026: the KTB Selection in 6 runs (won 0) · top-rated on KTB Rating in 5 runs (won 2) · fastest on KTB Speed in 9 runs (won 1) · 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.
