Mad Mike (IRE)
Mad Mike won a Class 4 maiden hurdle at Exeter in Feb 2024 on heavy ground over 2m5f – 3m. The gelding, who raced six times on turf, recorded one win and two places from those starts and has not won since. He last ran at Exeter in Oct 2024 when prominent in a Class 3 handicap hurdle off an official rating of 112, which was his career-high mark. All his runs came at three courses with four starts at Exeter.

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 129
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 →
