KTB Profile

Honey Sweet won two of 20 starts with her biggest success the Listed Prix Zeddaan at Deauville in Oct 2021. Both wins came on a first visit to the course, one at Nottingham in a Class 5 maiden over under 6f on soft ground in May 2021 and the other over 6f-7f on heavy ground. The filly, by Adaay out of a Harbour Watch mare, raced 18 times over 6f-7f. She finished 10 of 11 at Naas in Aug 2023 when last seen off an official rating of 90, 13lb below her highest ever mark.

KTB Speed and Rating

KTB Speed

Best recent Speed 101 the best of the last 3 graded (A or B) runs · Doncaster, 7 Sep 2022

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 77C the best of the last 3 rated runs · Cork, 18 Aug 2023 Official rating 90 at the last run, 27 Aug 2023

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.

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