Lucky Protector (IRE)
Lucky Protector is a maiden who won none of nine starts and placed once. His best effort came when second of nine at Pontefract in Jul 2023. He raced on turf and all-weather at trips from 6f to 1m4f, without success on good to firm, good to soft, good or standard going. The gelding, by Helmet out of Lucky Cala, last ran at Kempton in Feb 2024 when 11th of 12 in a Class 6 handicap off an official rating of 48, 19lb below his highest ever mark.

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 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.
