Calling A Star
Calling A Star has shown real promise as a three-year-old, winning twice from ten races and building a record that speaks to genuine potential. The horse has 2 wins and 4 places overall — a respectable haul for a young performer still learning the game — and has done much of its best work recently. Over the last six races, it has picked up two victories, including a win at Windsor on 15 June that came just six weeks ago. That suggests the horse is capable of competing at a decent level when everything clicks into place.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
Richard Hughes's yard at Upper Lambourn has been prolific this season with 60 winners to its name, and Calling A Star fits the profile of a horse the trainer knows how to get the best from. The first breakthrough came at Wolverhampton back in February, and that early win set the tone. What marks this horse as interesting is not a blizzard of victories but the pattern of recent form — winning 2 of the last 6 races shows consistency and improvement rather than a one-off flash of luck. At three years old, there is still time for Calling A Star to develop further, and with a trainer clearly doing well this season, the horse remains very much one to watch as it continues racing.
