Noble Affair (IRE)
Noble Affair won once from 22 starts on turf, the success coming in a Class 5 handicap hurdle at Hexham over 2m1f – 2m4f on soft ground in Apr 2023. She has not won since. The mare, by Morozov out of a Flemensfirth mare, led when finishing fourth of nine in a Class 5 mares handicap hurdle at Newcastle in Apr 2025, last raced off OR 80 which was 21lb below her highest ever mark. Headgear returned at that run.

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 112
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 →
