Brave Jen

Brave Jen is a hard-knocking eight-year-old who has been grinding away for the best part of two years without a win, though a recent top-3 finish suggests the horse still has something left in the tank. Over 20 races, the horse has won twice and finished in the top 3 seven times — a modest record that reflects the reality of competing in mid-tier racing, where every victory matters and droughts can test a horse's the yard.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
TrackLab's detailed breakdown

The horse's last win came at Fakenham on 22 December 2024, which now feels like a distant memory. Since then, Brave Jen has managed one top-3 finish in the last six outings — a second place most recently — but has also shown some poor form, including a ninth place and an eighth place, suggesting the horse is finding it harder to finish in the top-3 finishes. The current campaign has been tougher: in Class 4 races, where Brave Jen typically competes, the horse has won just 1 of 14, a 7% win rate that underlines how difficult this level can be.

The one bright spot in Brave Jen's profile is the partnership with jockey Jack Andrews. In nine races together, Andrews has steered the horse to victory twice — a 22% win rate — which is considerably better than the overall record. It is the kind of detail that catches the eye: a horse and rider clearly suited, even if the results have dried up recently. At eight years old, Brave Jen remains active and competitive, though the long absence from the winner's enclosure means every new race is a chance to prove the horse still has the quality to break through again.
