The KTB Fit ranking

1Wunderschon KTB Selection54/100
Wunderschon is a useful sort who has finished no worse than fourth in four starts and holds an official rating of 93. He drops back to 1m today having placed at the trip without winning, while he was fourth on his only previous run at Punchestown. The trainer operates at an 11% strike rate here from 1,376 runs, in line with their record elsewhere, and the jockey has an 8% strike rate from 12 rides at the track.
-
2San Juan De Lope50/100
San Juan De Lope makes his debut with a modest pedigree. The dam has had one previous runner that failed to win. Trainer P. Twomey operates at a 25% strike rate at Punchestown from 8 runs while jockey Donagh O'Connor has a 0% strike rate from 12 rides at the track.
-
3Lan De Ghaire50/100
Fair performer who has shown consistent form in three starts so far with a placed effort over today's 1m trip. Steps up from 6f now which looks a logical move given that placed run at the distance. Trainer records a 12% strike rate at Punchestown from 162 runs in line with his overall record while jockey has a 7% strike rate here from 14 rides.
-
4Handsoffshesmine44/100
Handsoffshesmine has shown little in two starts so far and is now dropped back to 1m having failed to trouble the judge at that trip last time. The yard operates at a 6% strike rate here which sits in line with their overall record while jockey Andrew Slattery has a 9% strike rate from 11 rides at the track. Data confidence is low and with only two runs on the board this remains very much a watching brief.
-
5Anymore43/100
Lightly raced with just one run behind her, so any assessment comes with real caution.
-
6Petticoat Bay43/100
Petticoat Bay showed some promise when third on debut over 7f.
-
7Looking For Love42/100
Looking For Love is a newcomer whose dam has produced two runners without a win between them.
-
8Duquesne Bay38/100
Duquesne Bay showed little on debut when finishing eighth of nine.
-
9Unreal Friend34/100
Unreal Friend has shown modest form in two starts so far, finishing third then eighth.
