KTB Profile

Barneys Gift won a Class 5 novice at Redcar over 6f-7f on soft ground in Nov 2021 and has been placed once more from 19 starts. The gelding, who was aged 5 at his last run in Jul 2024, has not won since and showed no spark when seventh of 10 in a Class 6 race at Wolverhampton on the all-weather. He raced off an official rating of 47 last time, 31lb below his highest ever mark. All nine all-weather runs have proved fruitless.

KTB Speed and Rating

KTB Speed

Best recent Speed 101 the best of the last 3 graded (A or B) runs · Newcastle (AW), 9 Mar 2023

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 Rating 59A the best of the last 3 rated runs · Pontefract, 3 May 2023 Official rating 47 at the last run, 8 Jul 2024

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. 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.
