Food For Thought (GB)
Food For Thought is a Dubawi filly who has one win from nine starts on turf, the success coming in a Class 3 fillies novice at Nottingham over 1m2f – 1m4f on good to firm in Jun 2026 off a mark of 80. She has raced at nine different courses and has never won on ground softer than good. Her last run, at Haydock in Oct 2026, saw her finish fifth of 10 in a Class 3 handicap off an official rating of 83. She usually leads but was held up that day.

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 109
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 →
