Wonder Kid (IRE)
Wonder Kid won three of eight starts, all over 1m2f – 1m4f on turf. He gained two of those wins at Newmarket, including a Class 4 handicap there in Sep 2024 off an official rating of 87, and the third at Newbury in Jun 2024. The gelding, by Belardo out of Petits Potins, also placed four times and raced off his career-high mark of 87 at his last run, which he won.

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 107
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 →
