Alright Dai
Alright Dai is a horse that has found his level and is making decent headway. The eight-year-old has won four times in nineteen races — roughly one win in every five attempts — but the real story is where those wins are coming from. At Class 5, the smaller tracks and less competitive races, he has won four of eleven (roughly one in three), which tells you he belongs in that grade and is genuinely competitive there, even if he struggles when the standard rises.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
What's most striking is his partnership with jockey Conor O'Farrell. When they team up, something clicks. In eight races together, O'Farrell has steered him to four wins — a fifty-fifty win rate that stands out sharply against Alright Dai's overall record. That kind of consistency suggests either a rider who really understands the horse's running style, or a pairing that simply works. Neil Mulholland's yard at Limpley Stoke has sent out sixty winners this season, so there's clearly good horsemanship behind the scenes.
Recent form shows promise. He won just over a month ago at Fontwell Park on January 11th and has picked up four placings in his last six races — he was in the frame for his most recent outing just yesterday. He has won twice in those last six races, which is encouraging momentum. His first career win came Boxing Day 2024 at Market Rasen, and at eight years old he still seems to be improving at a track and level that suits him. If O'Farrell stays in the saddle and the yard keeps him at Class 5, Alright Dai looks like a horse that can win again soon.
