Kala Noire (IRE)
Kala Noire won once from nine starts over jumps, the success coming in a Class 5 handicap chase at Bangor-on-Dee in Apr 2021 over 2m5f – 3m on good ground. All three placings also came in that trip range. The gelding, who raced off an official rating of 110 at his last run, finished fifth of six in a Class 4 handicap hurdle at Doncaster in Nov 2022. He had reached a highest ever mark of 114.

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 115
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.
