Abashiri

That sole victory came at Kempton Park in November 2025, and it is worth noting the company this horse keeps. Abashiri is trained by Charlie Appleby at Newmarket, one of the most powerful yards in British racing. Appleby's team has sent out 121 winners already this season alone — that is not a yard that fills its boxes with passengers. Getting a horse into training there and onto the track is in itself a mark of promise.

The recent form reads 3-5-1 in reverse order, meaning the win came first, followed by a fifth and then a third last time out. That fifth-place finish in the middle sits a little awkwardly between two decent efforts, but a return to form with a placing on the latest run — just one day ago — suggests any blip was temporary. Abashiri is clearly still being campaigned actively, and a horse in this kind of yard does not keep getting chances unless the team sees something worth persevering with. At three years old, with experience still being gathered, the trajectory here points upward.
