Albert Cee

Across his 26-race career, Albert Cee has won 4 times and finished in the top three on 9 occasions — that works out at roughly 1 win in every 6 or 7 races, which is a solid return at his level. He competes mostly in Class 5 races, the bread-and-butter tier of British racing rather than the headline events, and at that level he's won 2 from 9, or roughly 1 in 4. His recent form reads 9-1-6-4-2-1, which means two wins from his last six outings — a genuinely purple patch for a horse who spent much of his career finishing in the places without quite getting his head in front.

Ground conditions matter to him. On slightly soft ground — think damp but not muddy, the kind of surface that comes after a few days of autumn drizzle — he's won 2 of 6 races, a 33% win rate that suggests he finds an extra gear when there's a bit of give underfoot. His very first win came at Leicester back in September 2023, which started a story that has taken a while to build but now looks to be hitting a real high point.

He is trained at Newmarket by the partnership of P Charalambous and J Clutterbuck, a yard that has sent out 2 winners so far this season. Albert Cee accounts for both of them. Having raced just yesterday, he is as active as it gets — a horse in form, in work, and seemingly at the top of his game right now.
