Bambalam (FR)
Bambalam is 1 from 6 with the win at Class 5 level. The gelding led to take a 6f-7f handicap at Newcastle on Standard going in Oct 2025 off a mark of 75. All three runs at 1m-1m1f have failed to produce a win. The win came on the all-weather where he is 1 from 2 while he is 0 from 4 on turf.

KTB Speed and Rating
Best recent Speed 106
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 →
