Short Change (IRE)
Short Change is a gelding by Requinto out of Sage Grouse who was yet to win from six starts. He raced four times over 6f to 7f and twice under 6f, with two runs on standard all-weather at Dundalk and four on turf. His last run, at Dundalk in Sep 2024, was his first in first-time headgear and saw him finish 7 of 9 in a claiming maiden off an official rating of 46, which was 8lb below his highest ever mark.

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 →
