Deluded

At three years old, Deluded is still figuring things out, but the signs are quietly encouraging for a horse that has already banked a win and five places from eight races. That's a return of one win in every eight races overall, though the recent form paints a more interesting picture — across the last six outings, Deluded has finished 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 3rd, 5th, and 9th (reading backwards from today). Strip out that one poor run and you have a horse that has barely been out of the first three. That kind of consistency matters, because it means Deluded is rarely running badly — just occasionally running into something better.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

The one win came at Wolverhampton in September 2025, and it's worth noting that Wolverhampton is an all-weather, floodlit track — races there happen year-round regardless of the British weather, which gives horses like Deluded a chance to build experience in reliable, consistent conditions. That win came over a distance of seven furlongs to a mile, which is where Deluded clearly feels most at home: one win from five races at that trip works out to a 20% win rate, or roughly one in every five. For context, most horses win far less often than that, so finding a distance that suits this well is a genuine advantage.

Charlie Fellowes trains Deluded out of Newmarket — the heartland of British flat racing — and his yard has sent out 21 winners already this season, which tells you this is an operation that knows how to get horses ready to win. Fellowes has a reputation for patient, careful preparation, and the steady progression in Deluded's form suggests the horse is being placed thoughtfully rather than rushed.

With a race just yesterday and form that keeps trending upward, Deluded looks like a horse on the way somewhere rather than one marking time. The next step is probably finding out just how good the ceiling is.
