Norse Castle (GB)
Norse Castle is a maiden who was yet to win from 15 starts. He raced at up to 2m4f on turf and all-weather, without placing. His best effort came when fourth of six in a Class 5 claiming hurdle at Lingfield in Nov 2021, off an official rating of 71 which was 13lb below his highest ever mark. The gelding, by Norse Dancer out of a Barathea mare, was trained by Martin Bosley at that last 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 83
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.

Splits include every sample, however small — muted rows are under 3 runs. A one-from-one record is a fact, not a trend: read the Runs column before the strike rate.
