What A Whopper (IRE)
What A Whopper is a gelding by Churchill out of a daughter of Oasis Dream who failed to win in six starts between Aug 2022 and Aug 2023. He raced exclusively over 6f to 7f on turf, with four runs on good to soft and two on good, and reached an official rating of 69. His last run, at Chepstow in Aug 2023, was his first in first-time headgear when he finished 8 of 12 in a Class 6 handicap off a mark of 62.

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 104
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.
