Daytona Lady

Daytona Lady is a six-year-old horse in the thick of a difficult stretch. She has won 8 races from 61 starts overall — a win rate of roughly 1 in every 8 races — but hasn't crossed the line first in her last six outings. That's the kind of form that tests a horse's the yard, yet trainer Ruth Carr, who runs a yard at Stillington in North Yorkshire that has already sent out 56 winners this season, clearly still sees enough to keep her racing. Just five months ago, in April 2026, Daytona Lady won at Wolverhampton, so the ability is still there.Based on TrackLab's analysis

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

Where she really thrives is in Class 5 races — the lower end of the competitive scale. At that level, she has won 6 of her 35 races, a win rate of roughly 1 in every 6 starts. That's respectable form and suggests she knows how to find the winning post when conditions suit. She also has something of a track specialty at Chelmsford, where she has won twice from eight races. Over her last six runs, her form reads 3-5-8-2-7-7 — nothing to excite, but that second-place finish shows she is still capable of running close to a winner.

James Sullivan, who has ridden her most often, has won four races aboard her from 25 starts together, a 16 percent win rate that is a touch better than her overall record. That suggests she gets the best from her, even if recent results have not fallen her way. Carr has mentioned that Daytona Lady ran well when returned to action at Southwell, hinting that a return to form is possible. She raced just a day ago, so she remains in active competition and still has the chance to remind everyone why she won eight times in the first place.
