KTB Profile

Red Dahlia is a filly by Nando Parrado out of a Strategic Prince mare who has yet to win from three starts on turf. She raced over 6f to 7f on her first three outings, twice on soft ground, and her best effort came when fourth of 11 in a fillies maiden at Naas in Oct 2026. She had previously finished out of the frame at Fairyhouse and Cork. Her last run at Naas in Oct 2026 was for trainer John Joseph Murphy.

KTB Speed and Rating

KTB Speed

Best recent Speed 53 the best of the last 1 graded (A or B) run · Naas (IRE), 10 Oct 2026

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 72A the best of the last 3 rated runs · Cork (IRE), 30 Aug 2026

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 — its best recent day. The KTB Rating on a racecard is a different reading of the same figures: the level the horse has been running to, an average of up to its last six runs with the latest counting most, so the two can differ. 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.
