Carlton And Co

Most of those wins have come at Class 6 level, the bread-and-butter end of the racing ladder where smaller prizes are contested but the competition is still real. Four of Carlton And Co's five wins have come there, winning 4 from 23 races at that level — roughly 1 in 6 — which is a solid record. It also seems to appreciate normal ground conditions, winning 2 of its 12 races on a standard surface, a 17% win rate that stands well above its overall average. The most recent win came at Newcastle in November 2025, which means there has been a wait of around eight months since that last victory.

The yard behind the horse is Michael and David Easterby, based in Sheriff Hutton in North Yorkshire — a well-established operation that has sent out 55 winners this season alone, so Carlton And Co is in capable hands. The most regular jockey has been Joanna Mason, who has partnered the horse 14 times without landing a win together. That is not necessarily a damning stat — sometimes a horse simply finds winning hard regardless of who is on board — but it is a notable streak.

Recent form has been patchy. The last six runs read 1, 2, 10, 9, 9, 7 in reverse order, meaning a win and a close second have been followed by four efforts further back in the field. The horse raced just yesterday, so it is clearly in active training and being kept busy. Carlton And Co is unlikely to trouble the top races in the sport, but at its level it has shown it knows how to win — and in racing, that is never nothing.
