KTB Profile

Due For Luck is a gelding who won two of 14 starts, both at under 6f on good ground on turf. He won a restricted maiden at Carlisle in Jun 2023 on his debut and followed up in a Class 4 novice at Ripon in Aug 2023, each time on a first visit to the course. Both wins came on his only starts at those tracks. He last ran in Dec 2024 when ninth of nine in a Class 5 handicap at Newcastle (AW), his first time in headgear, off an official rating of 75 which was 11lb below his highest ever mark.

KTB Speed and Rating

KTB Speed

Best recent Speed 111 the best of the last 3 graded (A or B) runs · Chelmsford City (AW), 9 Nov 2024

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 81A the best of the last 3 rated runs · Chelmsford City (AW), 9 Nov 2024 Official rating 75 at the last run, 28 Dec 2024

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. 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.
