Eaton Anne

Her two wins tell an interesting story on their own. The first came at Uttoxeter on New Year's Eve 2024, and the second followed just a month later at Lingfield Park on 31 January 2025. Two wins in five weeks after a long wait suggested something was clicking into place. Since then, though, the wins have dried up entirely — she has gone six races without returning to the winner's enclosure, and her recent form of 4-10-2-4-2 shows a horse that is competitive enough to place but not quite finding that extra gear when it matters most.

Sean Bowen is the jockey most associated with her, and that partnership has produced both of her career wins from 11 rides together — a win rate of roughly 1 in 6, or 18%, which is meaningfully better than her overall record and suggests the pair have a decent understanding. She races mainly at Class 4 level, the solid middle ground of British racing, and has won 1 of her 9 races at that level. It is honest, respectable competition — not the glamour end of the sport, but the kind of racing that fills cards week in, week out.

Trainer Olly Murphy, based at Wilmcote in Warwickshire, is having a strong season — 146 winners and counting, which is the kind of output that marks out a genuinely thriving yard. Eaton Anne raced just yesterday, so she is firmly in current training and still being pointed at opportunities. Whether another win is coming is the question her supporters will be asking, but a horse that has found the winner's enclosure as recently as January and keeps placing regularly has not given up the argument yet.
