Dosman
Dosman has been racing steadily for a five-year-old with modest success, picking up wins at Kempton Park and Southwell but struggling to find the form needed for a breakthrough. With 2 wins and 8 places from 19 races, he sits at roughly a 1 in 10 win rate—solid enough for a horse that turns up regularly but not the kind of record that suggests big things ahead. His last victory came at Southwell on 20 February, now five months behind him, and recent outings have been inconsistent: a tenth place just before that win, then a sixth, fifth, fourth, second, and a first-place finish in his last six runs. That most recent win suggests there is still life in him, though the pattern shows he can be unreliable.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis
Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
Trainer Oli Rix, based at Newmarket, has kept him competing mostly in Class 2 races—among the top tier of British racing—where Dosman has failed to win from 5 attempts, returning blank in the grade that matters most. His best connection is with jockey Jonny Peate, who has ridden him 6 times for 1 win, a 17% win rate that edges above his overall average. That win at Kempton back in June 2024 marked his first career victory, and the second at Southwell earlier this year proves he can find the winning post, but the five-month gap and the quality of recent races suggest he remains a horse for the day rather than one building momentum toward anything special.
