East Eagle
East Eagle has found his feet at Stratford-on-Avon, a racecourse where he operates like a different horse entirely. In just three races there, he has won twice — most recently three months ago on 19 July 2026 — a striking record that makes the track feel like home. Across his 29 career races, the six-year-old has won four times and finished in the top three on 11 occasions, which works out to winning roughly one race in every seven starts.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
Mike Sowersby's yard at Little Barugh in North Yorkshire has had a productive season, and East Eagle remains active, having raced just a day ago. In that recent outing he finished second, following an earlier third-place finish. His partnership with jockey Aaron Anderson is worth noting — the pair have combined for two wins from twelve races together, a 17 per cent win rate that edges ahead of his career average. That suggests they work well in tandem, even if the sample is still relatively small.
The horse typically competes in Class 5 races, where he has won two of his 16 starts — a 12 per cent win rate at that level. His first career victory came on 15 April 2025 at Southwell, and while he took time to get off the mark, he has since proved himself a reliable competitor. Recent form shows mixed results, but the trajectory is encouraging enough that the yard will be planning another trip to Stratford, where East Eagle's record suggests the odds of another win are considerably better than his overall career statistics would imply.
