Cavalry Call
Cavalry Call is a 5-year-old who has struggled to find his feet in the racing game. His win rate of roughly 1 in every 16 races tells the story of a horse that gets into the frame occasionally but rarely crosses the line first. That second win at Chelmsford back in April 2025 is now 17 months behind him, leaving a dry spell that has lasted through his recent six runs—a sequence of eighth, eleventh, eleventh, thirteenth, seventh, and ninth place finishes that shows form has been unreliable.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
What is striking is how different he performs depending on who is riding him. Harry Davies has been his most frequent partner with seven rides together, and from those he has secured one win—a 14% win rate that is noticeably better than his overall record. That success with one particular jockey might suggest Cavalry Call needs the right sympathetic handling to produce his best. At Class 4 level, where he spends most of his time, he has won just once from 14 races, which underlines that he is often outgunned in these contests.
Patrick Morris's Prescott yard has been sending out winners this season—18 of them across the stable—so the training setup is capable. Cavalry Call was raced just yesterday, meaning he remains an active runner despite the long gap since his last victory. At this point, he is a horse searching for consistency at a modest level, and any return to the winners' circle would require a reversal of recent form that has shown little encouragement.
