KTB Profile

Masterpainter won once from 22 starts, the success coming in a Class 5 nursery handicap at Thirsk in Sep 2022 over 1m to 1m1f on good ground. The gelding, by Caravaggio out of a Mastercraftsman mare, has not won since and showed no success in ten starts on all-weather surfaces. His last run, at Newcastle in Oct 2024, was off an official rating of 49, 20lb below his highest ever mark.

KTB Speed and Rating

KTB Speed

Best recent Speed 90 the best of the last 3 graded (A or B) runs · Newcastle (AW), 12 Sep 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 70A the best of the last 3 rated runs · Newcastle (AW), 12 Sep 2024 Official rating 49 at the last run, 15 Oct 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.
