KTB Profile
Ascot De Bruyere won six of 32 starts on turf between Mar 2015 and Feb 2022. Four of those wins came at Newcastle, with the biggest success in the Class 3 Vertem Leading The Field Handicap Chase over 2m1f to 2m4f on good to soft in Feb 2019 off a mark of 122. He also won over 2m5f to 3m on heavy ground at both Newcastle and Kelso. The gelding, aged 12 at his last run in Feb 2022, was last seen finishing off 117, 18lb below his highest ever mark.
A/E compares actual wins with what starting prices implied. "Fair" strips the bookmaker margin from the expectation, so favourites and longshots are judged on the same footing — figures near 1.00 mean the market priced this horse about right.

Best recent Speed115the best of the last 3 graded (A or B) runs · Newcastle, 28 Jan 2020
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 →

KTB Rating
Best recent KTB Rating121Bthe best of the last 3 rated runs · Newcastle, 30 Mar 2021Official rating 117at the last run, 26 Feb 2022
What the horse achieved in each race, in pounds on the official-rating scale, from the weight carried, the lengths beaten and the race's own level solved across the archive — never the market, never the official rating as a starting point. The headline is the best of the horse's last three rated runs on that code — its best recent day. The KTB Rating on a racecard is a different reading of the same figures: the level the horse has been running to, an average of up to its last six runs with the latest counting most, so the two can differ. A, B or C on a run is how much known form was in that race. What this means →

Both figures are KTB's own, computed from the archive; no vendor rating enters either. Every run's figure is on its form line below with its grade. Grades measure how much the archive could see, never the merit of the run.
Run style is derived from in-running commentary, which our data provider does not supply for this horse's races.
