Archivist

There's a horse right now in proper form, and its recent record makes for compelling reading. Archivist is a 4-year-old with 11 races under its belt, picking up 3 wins and 9 places along the way — that's a win rate of roughly 1 in every 4 races (27%), which is a solid return at this level. More telling, though, is what it has done lately: in its last six races, it has won three of them, with the sequence reading 1-3-5-3-1-1 from most recent back. That kind of consistency — two wins in a row coming into this stretch, a blip in the middle, then straight back to winning — suggests a horse that knows its job and is doing it well right now.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

Archivist got off the mark at Leicester back in June 2025, which is a perfectly respectable starting point, but the most recent win came at Meydan just two weeks ago, on 13 March 2026. That jump in profile is worth noting — Meydan is a serious venue, and winning there says something about a horse's ability to travel and perform when it matters. The fact that this came only 16 days ago means Archivist is actively racing and in the middle of what looks like a purple patch.

One pattern worth flagging is how well this horse goes on normal ground — two wins from four races on standard conditions, a 50% win rate that any trainer would be delighted with. When the surface suits, Archivist delivers. Trainer Hamad Al Jehani's yard has sent out 15 winners already this season, so this isn't a one-horse operation propped up by a single animal. There's genuine competence behind the scenes, and Archivist looks like one of the yard's sharper tools right now.

At Class 4 level — the solid mid-tier of British racing, not the glamour end but not the bottom rung either — Archivist has won 1 from 3, which is 33%, or roughly 1 in every 3 attempts. That's a healthy return at that grade, and with three wins already on the board and a horse clearly enjoying its racing at the moment, there's every reason to watch what comes next.
