Dannick

The horse has a clear affinity for Lingfield Park, where he has raced five times and won twice — a strong 40% win rate at that track. Both his career victories have come there, including his first win back in July. He also shows a marked preference for normal ground conditions, winning 2 of 7 races (just under 30%) when the track is dry and standard, compared to his overall record. The distances that suit him best appear to be 1m1f to 1m2f, where he has won 1 of 5 races (20%).

He is trained by Gary and Josh Moore at Lower Beeding in West Sussex, a yard that has been prolific this season with 99 winners already sent out. Interestingly, his most regular jockey is Tom Queally, though the partnership has not clicked yet — they have ridden together 10 times without a win. When racing at Class 4 level, Dannick has struggled to break through, winning none of his eight races at that grade. The recent uptick in form, however, suggests he may be finding the right race and conditions to suit him.
