KTB Yard Profile

Sends out around 240 runners a season, almost all on the flat, winning with 9% of them — level with the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 1.02). New recruits from other yards win at 15% first time out (61 runs).

The read

The record is strongest at Redcar (17.3%, n=104), clear of the yard's 9.3% baseline. It is weakest at York (0% over 81 runners) — the widest gap in the record. New recruits from other stables on their first run win at 14.8% (n=61, Fair A/E 1.80), but debutants struggle at 1.9% (n=52, Fair A/E 0.55). Jonny Peate rides 20% of the entries and matches the yard's average almost exactly (9.1%, A/E 1.02) — the market has that partnership priced right. The yard also reads well off a 0-7-day break (16.2%, n=130). The record reads poorly in Class 2 — 3.4% over 87 runners, 5.9pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the yard in Class 3: Fair A/E 0.55 across 87 runners (3.4% strike, −54.00 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 Gigaset International Stakes at Ascot (Jul 2018, £93,375). The stable star of the record: Dapper Man (IRE) — 16 wins from 98 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fires Apr–Jun.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 9.3% baseline — descriptive splits with the sample always shown, not tips. 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.

Showing the 60 most-raced of the 134 horses sent out in this window — each ran at least 9 times. Horses with fewer runs aren't listed; search finds any horse since 2005. 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 60 horses listed, 36 arrived from another yard in our archive, most often from Roger Fell & Sean Murray (5) and Kevin Prendergast (3); 24 had their first archived run for this yard.

20 have since run for another yard, most often for Roger Fell & Sean Murray (17); 40 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.

Beneath it: every run by that sire's progeny in our archive since 2008, as at 20 Oct 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 Roger Fell's strike rate?
Roger Fell has won 114 of 1,220 runners since 2022, a strike rate of 9.3% (as at 20 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Roger Fell do best at?
Redcar by strike rate: 18 wins from 104 runners (17.3%) 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 Roger Fell?
Jonny Peate, with 242 runners since 2022 — 20% of the total. That pairing has won 22 (9.1%).
Is Roger Fell in form?
Too few runners in the last 14 days to read — 10 runners, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.
What is Roger Fell's Fair A/E?
1.02, from 1,216 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 20 October 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
