Sovereign Ocean (IRE)
Sovereign Ocean is 2 from 6 with four places. Both wins came at 6f-7f on a first visit to the course, one in a Class 5 maiden at Musselburgh on good ground in Jul 2025 and the other in a Class 4 nursery handicap at Wolverhampton on standard going in Dec 2025 off an official rating of 84. The colt has raced exclusively at that trip. He finished second of 13 in a Class 3 handicap at Southwell on all-weather in Aug 2026 when beaten favourite and last raced off a career-high mark of 93.

A/E compares actual wins with what starting prices implied. "Fair" strips the bookmaker margin from the expectation, so favourites and longshots are judged on the same footing — figures near 1.00 mean the market priced this horse about right.
KTB Speed and Rating
Best recent Speed 116
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 →
