For Real (FR)
For Real won one of six starts, the success coming in a Class 6 handicap at Chelmsford City over 1m to 1m1f on standard AW. The gelding was aged 3 at his last run in Nov 2023 when he finished sixth of 15 in another Class 6 handicap at the same track off an official rating of 57, having worn headgear for the first time. All four AW runs came on standard going while both turf starts were on good ground. The son of Shalaa out of a Galileo mare reached a highest official rating of 60.

KTB Speed and Rating
Best recent Speed 87
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 →

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.
Run style is derived from in-running commentary, which our data provider does not supply for this horse's races.
