Elemental Eye
Elemental Eye is a five-year-old who has found his niche at moderate levels, winning four of his 39 races and finishing in the top three on 15 occasions — a win rate of roughly 1 in 10. What matters more than the headline figures is where those wins have come. He has won three of his last 18 races over distances between a mile and six furlongs and two miles (17%), which tells you exactly what this horse needs to be competitive: time and room to settle into a rhythm. Put him in shorter races and he struggles — he has never won from 16 attempts at the highest levels of his class — but stretch the trip and he becomes a different animal.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
His recent form shows real promise. He won at Perth three weeks ago, his second victory in his last six outings, and came back to the track just yesterday. Trainer Iain Jardine, whose Carrutherstown yard has already sent out 57 winners this season, sees a horse with genuine potential for improvement. The plan appears to be keeping him on the Flat for now, but Jardine has suggested that hurdling could be in Elemental Eye's future — and specifically flagged Musselburgh as the sort of track where he would thrive. That makes sense. Musselburgh suits long-striding horses that need space and a trip, exactly what this horse wants. For now, though, he remains active and regularly raced, with Andrew Mullen his most frequent partner, though the pair have only managed to land one win from 11 races together.
