KTB Profile

Simply Ed finished third of eight at Leicester in Apr 2024 on his fourth start and that remains his best effort from eight runs. The gelding, by Charming Thought out of a Mujahid mare, has otherwise failed to place and never won. He raced five times over 1m5f to 2m, twice over 1m2f to 1m4f and once over 6f to 7f. His last run, at Kempton in Feb 2025, came in a Class 4 maiden hurdle where he raced mid-division.

KTB Speed and Rating

KTB Speed

Best recent Speed 67 the best of the last 1 graded (A or B) run · Chelmsford City (AW), 6 Jun 2024

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.

KTB Rating

Best recent KTB Rating 50C the best of the last 3 rated runs · Kempton (AW), 26 Jun 2024 Official rating 49 at the last run, 26 Jun 2024

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.

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.
