KTB Yard Profile

Sends out around 90 runners a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning with 15% of them — beating the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.03). New recruits from other yards win at 21% first time out (97 runs).

The read

The record is strongest at Fakenham (32.7%, n=110) and Market Rasen (22.3%, n=103) — all clear of the yard's 14.6% baseline. New recruits from other stables on their first run win at 20.6% (n=97, Fair A/E 1.52), but debutants struggle at 7.2% (n=111, Fair A/E 0.76). Ciaran Gethings rides 50% of the entries and matches the yard's average almost exactly (13.9%, A/E 0.96). The record reads poorly in Flat races — 7.1% over 84 runners, 7.5pts below the baseline. 12 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the yard has landed: the Randox Supports Race Against Dementia Topham Handicap Chase at Aintree (Apr 2024, £84,195). The stable star of the record: Marsh Wren (GB) — 9 wins from 16 runs for the yard.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 14.6% 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.

Showing the 60 most-raced of the 207 horses sent out in this window — each ran at least 10 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, 24 arrived from another yard in our archive, most often from Ms Sheila Lavery (2) and Renee Robeson (2); 36 had their first archived run for this yard.

8 have since run for another yard; 52 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.

KTB’s figures

KTB’s figures on this yard’s runners since 9 Oct 2026: the KTB Selection in 1 run (won 0) · top-rated on KTB Rating in 3 runs (won 2) · to 26 Oct 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.

Quick answers

What is Stuart Edmunds's strike rate?
Stuart Edmunds has won 240 of 1,640 runners since 2008, a strike rate of 14.6% (as at 6 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Stuart Edmunds do best at?
Fakenham by strike rate: 36 wins from 110 runners (32.7%) 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 Stuart Edmunds?
Ciaran Gethings, with 827 runners since 2008 — 50% of the total. That pairing has won 115 (13.9%).
Is Stuart Edmunds in form?
In the last 14 days: 15 runners, 2 winners, a strike rate of 13.3%. That is in line with the baseline of 14.6% since 2008.
What is Stuart Edmunds's Fair A/E?
1.03, from 1,636 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 6 November 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
