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 →

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 →
