Elvetham

Away from Lingfield, Elvetham's record is less impressive but still worth noting. It won its maiden race at Kempton Park back in March 2026 and has managed just one win in the seven Class 6 races it has contested since. The horse performs noticeably better at distances between five and six and a half furlongs — winning three of 13 races at those trips, a rate of roughly 1 in 4 — which suggests it may struggle over longer or shorter distances. On normal ground conditions, it has won twice from 11 races, indicating it is not a horse for very wet or very firm tracks.

Trained by Conrad Allen at Newmarket, Elvetham is currently active and racing regularly. Its last six runs tell a story of inconsistency: a tenth-place finish, a win, then a sixth, a third, a twelfth, and most recently a second last week. That second at Lingfield suggests the horse is in reasonable form, though regular jockey Chris Hayes has yet to taste victory aboard it across eight rides together. The connection between horse and rider matters, and that zero win rate suggests they may not be an ideal pairing.
