KTB Yard Profile

Sends out around 60 runners a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning with 13% of them — beating the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 1.35).

Deterministic profile computed from 297 archived runs (last 5 seasons) · updated 27 Oct 2026
KTB at a glance Fires Mar–Apr James Best: 10.2% from 59
The read

New recruits from other stables on their first run struggle at 3.3% (n=30, Fair A/E 0.45). Horses returning fresh after 61+ days are the standout value angle: 11.8% strikes only just below baseline, but Fair A/E 1.55 and +11.00 to a £1 stake over 102 runners — a record the market has persistently underpriced. James Best rides 20% of the entries and sits below the yard's average (10.2% vs 13.1%, A/E 1.11) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The yard also reads well beyond 3m (20.5%, n=39) and in Chase races (18.1%, n=138). The record reads poorly over 2m5f – 3m — 6.5% over 77 runners, 6.6pts below the baseline. One Group or Graded win sits in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the Virgin Bet Scilly Isles Novices' Chase at Sandown (Feb 2024, £57,620). The stable star of the record: Glimpse Of Gold (GB) — 7 wins from 37 runs for the yard. Seasonally, the yard fires Mar–Apr.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 13.1% 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.

All 49 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 49 horses listed, 34 arrived from another yard in our archive, most often from Amy Murphy (2) and Charlie Longsdon (2); 15 had their first archived run for this yard.

9 have since run for another yard, most often for Denis Quinn (2); 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.

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 27 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 Sarah Humphrey's strike rate?
Sarah Humphrey has won 39 of 297 runners since 2022, a strike rate of 13.1% (as at 27 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Sarah Humphrey do best at?
Huntingdon by strike rate: 9 wins from 48 runners (18.8%) 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 Sarah Humphrey?
James Best, with 59 runners since 2022 — 20% of the total. That pairing has won 6 (10.2%).
Is Sarah Humphrey in form?
Too few runners in the last 14 days to read — 3 runners, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.
What is Sarah Humphrey's Fair A/E?
1.35, from 297 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 27 October 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
