Catullus

Catullus is three years old and still finding his feet, but there is real form emerging in his recent races. He has won 3 of his 10 outings (a win rate of roughly one in every three races), with 7 additional places, and he has turned into a more consistent performer over his last six runs — winning 2 of them and placing in three others. The most recent victory came just this week at Newbury on 18 September, a significant achievement for a horse still learning his trade.Based on TrackLab's analysis

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

Trained by Charlie Appleby at Newmarket, Catullus is part of one of Britain's most prolific racing operations: the yard has sent out 121 winners this season alone. His first success came at Great Yarmouth in August 2025, but the real improvement has come in the past few weeks. After a blank run, he bounced back with a win, then a place, then another win at Newbury. That kind of recent form — steady, with moments of genuine success — suggests he is developing into a genuinely capable racehorse rather than a hit-and-miss prospect. At three years old and still active, there is every reason to think the best may still be ahead of him.
