Afton Down (GB)
Afton Down is a gelding who has won one of five starts, the success coming at Class 5 level in a restricted novice stakes at Wolverhampton over 6f-7f on standard going in Apr 2026. He has raced exclusively over 6f-7f, with his three all-weather runs yielding that win and two further places. His last run, at Ascot in May 2026, saw him finish 7 of 19 in a Class 4 handicap off a career-high mark of 76 while racing prominently. By Time Test out of a Verglas mare, he is trained by Jack Jones.

KTB Speed and Rating
Best recent Speed 96
How fast the horse ran, as points against the day-corrected standard time for its course and distance: 100 is the median GB Class 4 handicap winner on that code; one point is 0.1% of the standard time. A, B or C is how much the day's card could tell us, not how good the run was. What this means →
