Bahadur
Bahadur is a 4-year-old with real potential but still searching for consistency. He has won 4 of his 14 races — a solid win rate of roughly 1 in every 3 outings — and has placed 7 times besides, which suggests he is competitive at his level even when he does not quite get the job done. The real story, though, is what happens when
Robert Havlin gets in the saddle. The jockey has ridden Bahadur five times and won three of those races, a 60% partnership that stands out sharply against the horse's overall record. When the right rider is aboard, this horse performs noticeably better.

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
His most recent form tells a mixed picture. Over his last six races, he has a win and two other placings mixed in with some forgettable efforts — a ninth, a seventh, and a tenth. That suggests he is capable of turning up anywhere from competitive to nowhere at all. His most recent win came at Goodwood on 22 May, two months ago, and he raced just a day ago, so he is clearly an active and well-campaigned horse. He typically runs in Class 5 races, where he has won one of his three starts, though his overall form there hints at a horse who can win but is not dominant.
S Woods trains him from the Newmarket yard and has sent out 24 winners this season, a productive operation. Bahadur got his career off the mark at Kempton Park on 15 October 2025 and has proved himself able to win at different tracks. He is a horse with enough ability to beat most of what he faces on his day, but consistency remains the challenge — and when Havlin is not riding him, the results drop away noticeably. That partnership is the key to unlocking his better form.
