The Parthenon (IRE)
The Parthenon is a colt by Kingman out of a Kingmambo mare who won one of five turf starts. He took the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden over 6f-7f at Gowran Park on good ground in Jun 2024 and has not won since. All four subsequent runs came at that trip or 1m-1m1f with his last run at Naas in Oct 2024 when he finished eighth of 14 in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Birdcatcher Premier Nursery Handicap off an official rating of 96.

KTB Speed and Rating
Best recent Speed 60
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 →
