TrackLab's detailed breakdown

What makes Almarada Prince genuinely interesting is where it wins. On normal ground, the horse has won 3 of its 11 races — a 27% win rate that is markedly better than its overall record. More striking still is its form in Class 4 races, the sort of mid-tier contests that suit horses of moderate ability: it has won 3 of 9 at that level, a 33% win rate that suggests Paul Midgley's yard at Westow, North Yorkshire, knows exactly where to run this horse for a result. That's smart training. Almarada Prince's last win came just this week, at Pontefract on 5 October 2026, a timely reminder that the horse remains competitive and capable of delivering when conditions align.

Recent form tells a different story. In its last six races, the horse has been out of the frame only once, finishing fourth twice and picking up places in the other four — a sequence that shows reliability but not much sparkle. William Pyle, who rides the horse most often, has managed just one win from seven races together, suggesting the partnership may not be delivering its best. But at 5 years old and still active, Almarada Prince remains a horse worth following in Class 4 company on normal ground, the kind of honest performer that gives its yard and the yard regular opportunities to cash in.
