KTB Profile

Yaazaain won one of 34 starts, the success coming in a Class 5 novices handicap chase at Huntingdon over 2m5f – 3m on good ground in May 2022. The gelding, by Iffraaj out of a Danehill Dancer mare, was last seen in a Class 5 novices handicap hurdle at Newton Abbot in Jun 2023 when he raced off an official rating of 78, 20lb below his highest ever mark. Headgear returned at that last run. All wins at Class 5.

Best recent Speed 101 the best of the last 3 graded (A or B) runs · Taunton, 10 Nov 2022

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 →

What the horse achieved in each race, in pounds on the official-rating scale, from the weight carried, the lengths beaten and the race's own level solved across the archive — never the market, never the official rating as a starting point. The headline is the best of the horse's last three rated runs on that code. A, B or C on a run is how much known form was in that race. 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.
