KTB Profile

Qalaa is a colt by Mucho Macho Man out of a daughter of Awesome Again and has yet to win from three starts. He finished 13 of 14 when held in an Irish EBF Median Sires Series Maiden at Dundalk on all-weather in Oct 2025. The colt had raced twice on turf before that, once on heavy ground and once on good, as well as once over 6f to 7f. All three runs came at different tracks.

KTB Speed and Rating

KTB Speed

Best recent Speed 87 the best of the last 3 graded (A or B) runs · Listowel, 22 Sep 2025

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 · Listowel, 22 Sep 2025

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.
