Texas King (IRE)
Texas King is a gelding by Youmzain out of a Danehill Dancer mare who has yet to win from four starts on turf. He raced three times over 2m1f to 2m4f and once over 1m5f to 2m, all on soft or good to soft going. His two runs at Ballinrobe produced no placed efforts, nor did his starts at Sligo and Tramore. He last ran at Sligo in Jul 2024 off an official rating of 88, which was also his highest ever mark.

KTB Speed and Rating
Best recent Speed —
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 →

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.
