Bluelight Bay (IRE)
Bluelight Bay won two of 20 starts. Both wins came on good to firm going, one at Windsor over 6f to 7f in a Class 5 novice in Jun 2022 and the other at Salisbury over 1m to 1m1f in a Class 2 handicap in Jun 2023 off a mark of 88. The gelding, by Exceed and Excel out of a Sir Percy mare, has never won on all-weather surfaces from five attempts. He finished sixth of 11 at Wolverhampton in Nov 2024 when last raced off an official rating of 75, 21lb 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.
KTB Speed and Rating
Best recent Speed 107
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 →
