KTB Profile

Macduff won his only race from seven starts, a Class 4 maiden at Newmarket over 6f-7f on good ground in Aug 2023. The gelding, by Sea The Stars out of a Bated Breath mare, has since raced four times over 1m2f-1m4f without success. He finished third of nine in the Class 1 Foundation Stakes at Goodwood in Sep 2024 off an official rating of 104, his career-high mark having been 107. All seven runs came on turf.

KTB Speed and Rating

KTB Speed

Best recent Speed 97 the best of the last 3 graded (A or B) runs · Sandown, 26 Apr 2024

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 91A the best of the last 3 rated runs · Ascot, 21 Jun 2024 Official rating 104 at the last run, 25 Sep 2024

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. 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.
