Brave Emerald won two of eight starts on turf, both in Class 6 handicaps over 1m2f – 1m4f. He gained the first success at Catterick on soft ground in Jul 2025 off 55 and the second at Carlisle on good ground in Aug 2025 off 60. His last run, at Carlisle in Aug 2025, was a win.

KTB Speed and Rating
Best recent Speed 91
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 →
