Every race at Kelso in the OddsLens results database from 22 March 2025 to 24 May 2026: 12 flat races and 118 jumps races, 1,035 runners at official starting price. What the numbers say, recomputed every week and never edited by hand.

Trainers and jockeys with at least 15 runners and four winners here in the window. Strike rate is wins over runs; the return is £1 on every runner at SP. Thirty runs is a small sample, and the yards with the best strike rates are usually the yards with the best horses everywhere.

Fewer than 20 settled calls at Kelso so far (19), so no number worth quoting yet. Every call is on the public record as it settles.
Method. Every settled race at Kelso in the OddsLens results database from 22 March 2025 to 24 May 2026 (official returns, starting price, non-runners excluded). "Favourite" means the shortest starting price in the race; joint favourites are each backed for £1. Ground is the official going for the meeting: soft, heavy and their variants against everything else. The draw study uses flat races with at least eight drawn runners, in two bands (five to six and a half furlongs; seven furlongs to a mile and half a furlong), each field split into thirds by stall number. Big handicaps are races with "handicap" in the title and 14 or more runners at SP. The OddsLens record is the public ledger only (no shadow models), settled calls, at the prices logged before the off. Sections with too few races to say anything true are left out. Recomputed weekly; this page was built on 10 September 2026.
