KTB Yard Profile

Sends out around 110 runners a season, almost all on the flat, winning with 21% of them — beating the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 1.14).

The read

A horse in first-time headgear has been a poor signal at 14.3% (n=49, Fair A/E 0.94). Horses returning fresh after 61+ days are the standout value angle: 20.9% strikes only just above baseline, but Fair A/E 1.17 and +20.63 to a £1 stake over 134 runners — a record the market has persistently underpriced. Oisin Murphy rides 13% of the entries and beats the yard's average (39.7% vs 20.6%, A/E 1.52) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The yard also reads well over 6f – 7f (26.1%, n=199). The record reads poorly on Good to Soft going — 4.9% over 41 runners, 15.7pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the yard over 1m2f – 1m4f: Fair A/E 0.76 across 151 runners (12.6% strike, −16.27 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperform what the price implies. 234 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the Qipco Champion Stakes at Ascot (Oct 2013, £737,230). The stable star of the record: Passion And Glory (IRE) — 7 wins from 18 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fires May–Jun.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 20.6% 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.

Descriptive splits ranked by divergence × sample — insight, not instruction. Every angle carries its N; nothing under 30 runs qualifies. Rows within 2pts of the baseline appear only when the market-relative read (Fair A/E) diverges, and show it.

Showing the 60 most-raced of the 120 horses sent out in this window — each ran at least 4 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, none arrived from another yard in our archive — all 60 had their first archived run here.

7 have since run for another yard; 53 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.

In our archive from its very first year (2005), so this career almost certainly began earlier than our record does. The figures above count 2005 onwards only — what the archive holds, not a full-career total. This card is the full archive census (2005→); the statistics in the header aggregate from 2008 — the floor that guarantees every horse a complete captured career — so this card can legitimately show more wins than the header.

Beneath it: every run by that sire's progeny in our archive since 2008, as at 24 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 Saeed bin Suroor's strike rate?
Saeed bin Suroor has won 109 of 530 runners since 2022, a strike rate of 20.6% (as at 24 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Saeed bin Suroor do best at?
Chelmsford City (AW) by strike rate: 12 wins from 49 runners (24.5%) 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 Saeed bin Suroor?
Oisin Murphy, with 68 runners since 2022 — 13% of the total. That pairing has won 27 (39.7%).
Is Saeed bin Suroor 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 Saeed bin Suroor's Fair A/E?
1.14, from 527 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 24 October 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
