On The Spot (IRE)
On The Spot is a mare by Starspangledbanner out of Miss Mocca who failed to win in eight starts between Sep 2020 and Feb 2024. She raced on turf and all-weather without placing, contesting trips from 1m to 2m on ground ranging from good to firm to heavy. Her last run, at Thurles in Feb 2024, was her first for the yard when she finished 10 of 12 in a maiden hurdle. She reached a highest ever official rating of 49.

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 94
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.
