Crow's Nest (IRE)
Crow's Nest won two of 15 starts, both at Class 5 level. Both wins came on turf, one under 6f on firm ground at Bath in Jun 2023 and the other over 6f-7f on good to firm at Hamilton the same month. He has never won on the all-weather, finishing 7 of 8 at Lingfield in Jan 2025 when last seen. The gelding, who was aged 5 at his last run, raced 20lb below his highest ever mark of 82 on that occasion.

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 95
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 →
