Archivist
Archivist has been on a hot streak lately, and nowhere more so than at York, where the horse simply refuses to lose. In its last three races at the Knavesmire, Archivist has won twice, making it a genuine course specialist with a record of 2 wins from 3 runs there. That most recent victory came this week, on 22 August, proving that form is absolutely current and the horse is firing right now. Over the past six races, Archivist has won three times, which tells you everything about its recent momentum — when this horse shows up at the track these days, it knows how to get the job done.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
The broader picture is equally impressive. At four years old, Archivist has won five races from fourteen starts, a win rate that sits at roughly one in every three races. That is genuinely strong form, and it is backed up by eleven places as well, meaning the horse finishes in the money far more often than not. The horse made its breakthrough at Leicester back in June 2025 and has been climbing steadily ever since. It typically races in Class 4 company, where it has a one-in-three record, and trainer H Al Jehani, based at Newmarket, has built a productive yard that sent out eighteen winners already this season.
What makes Archivist genuinely interesting is the sharpness of its recent form combined with that York dominance. This is a horse that knows a good track and is being ridden there with confidence — two wins from the last three tries at that course is not luck, it is pattern. With the horse actively racing and clearly in form, Archivist looks like one to follow whenever it next lines up.
