The Swede (GB)
The Swede is a mare by Great Pretender out of a Romany Rye mare who failed to win in six starts on turf between May 2023 and Sep 2023. She raced at four different courses without placing and was unplaced in all four trip ranges from 1m5f to over 3m on good and good to soft ground. Her last run at Fontwell in Sep 2023 came in a Class 5 handicap hurdle off an official rating of 57 which was her career-high mark.

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 —
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.
