Velsheda is a filly by Dream Ahead out of a Sinndar mare who was yet to win from five starts. She raced on turf and all-weather, over trips from 6f to 2m4f, without placing. Her last run, at Auteuil in Mar 2023, was her first for the yard and saw headgear return when she finished 6 of 9 in the Prix Oiseleur. She had runs at Deauville, Chantilly and Saint-Cloud.

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.
