That first win came at Hexham on 27 August 2025, and it opened a door Divilabother has been walking through ever since. Hexham has become a genuine happy hunting ground — two wins from six races there means the horse has won 1 in every 3 times it has turned up at that track, which is a remarkable ratio for any horse. Some horses simply take to a particular course: the shape of the track, the terrain, something in the air. Whatever it is at Hexham, Divilabother has found it.
The most recent win came at Cartmel just days ago on 28 June 2026, which confirms this is not a horse coasting on old form. Normal ground conditions have been the key — all 3 career wins have come on a standard surface, and with 3 wins from 13 races in those conditions, the horse converts at 23%, or roughly 1 in every 4 attempts. Get the ground wrong and the results dry up; get it right and Divilabother is a genuine contender.
Jockey Harry Reed has been the regular partner, riding in 6 of those races together and winning once — a 17% win rate, or about 1 in every 6 rides. That is a solid partnership rather than a spectacular one, though the bigger picture is that Tristan Davidson's yard has sent out 21 winners this season, suggesting this is an operation in fine form. A horse hitting its stride at 8, trained by a yard firing on all cylinders, racing on its favourite ground — Divilabother is worth keeping an eye on.
