Borderline Madness
Her win rate of around 1 in every 7 races is modest, yet the detail matters: she performs markedly better at Class 6 level, where she has won 2 of 9 races (22%), compared to her overall record. This hints at a horse who finds her level in smaller races and tends to struggle when stepped up in class.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
His partnership with jockey Jack Mitchell tells a similar story. The pair have raced together seven times, and Mitchell has steered him to victory twice—a 29% win rate that sits well above Borderline Madness's baseline. In racing, when a particular jockey clicks with a horse, it often reflects something real: a good fit between their styles, or simply a rider who knows how to get the best from that particular animal. Mitchell's record aboard Borderline Madness is the sort of thing worth noting if you're following the horse's chances.
The timing of her last victory, on 29 April 2026 at Southwell, is now six months in the rear-view mirror—a long drought. Her recent form shows she ran fifth and eighth in her last two outings, with nothing particularly striking in the half-dozen races before that. At 4 years old, Borderline Madness is solid enough for William Stone's West Wickham yard to keep running, but he looks like a horse who is most comfortable finding races suited to his abilities rather than one destined for big occasions. With Jack Mitchell in the saddle and a Class 6 race on the card, that is when to pay attention.
