KTB Profile

Shanbally Rose won once from 19 starts, the success coming in a Class 5 handicap chase at Perth in Sep 2022 over 2m1f – 2m4f on good ground off an official rating of 74. She raced off a mark of 78 when finishing 6 of 7 in another Class 5 handicap chase at Perth in May 2023, her first time in headgear. The mare, by Court Cave out of an unraced Taipan mare, recorded all five of her placed efforts on turf.

KTB Speed and Rating

KTB Speed

Best recent Speed 76 the best of the last 3 graded (A or B) runs · Market Rasen, 1 Dec 2022

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 82B the best of the last 3 rated runs · Market Rasen, 1 Dec 2022 Official rating 78 at the last run, 18 May 2023

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.

Run style is derived from in-running commentary, which our data provider does not supply for this horse's races.
