KTB Profile

Delgany Monarch won once from 21 starts on turf, the success coming in a Class 5 handicap chase over 3m on soft ground at Plumpton in Apr 2023. He raced off a mark of 89 that day and has never won at any other trip or on any other going. His last run, at Fontwell in Mar 2025, was his first in first-time headgear and saw him finish sixth of seven off an official rating of 78, 37lb below his highest ever mark.

KTB Speed and Rating

KTB Speed

Best recent Speed 107 the best of the last 3 graded (A or B) runs · Plumpton, 21 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 75C the best of the last 3 rated runs · Fontwell, 17 Mar 2025 Official rating 78 at the last run, 17 Mar 2025

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 — its best recent day. The KTB Rating on a racecard is a different reading of the same figures: the level the horse has been running to, an average of up to its last six runs with the latest counting most, so the two can differ. 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.
