Emailandy

Most encouraging is Emailandy's record in Class 3 races, where it has won 1 of 7 starts—a 14% win rate that shows it performs better against horses at that level than it does overall. Its two career wins both came at Plumpton, including its first success on 6 November 2023, though the second victory back on 31 March 2024 now feels like ancient history. Thirty-one months without a win is a long drought, and recent form offers no comfort. In its last six races, Emailandy has finished fourth in its most recent outing and finished in the top 3 out of the top three in the others—a pattern of decline that suggests the horse is struggling to find its way back to the winner's board.

Jockey Harry Cobden has ridden Emailandy eleven times, winning once (a 9% win rate), which is slightly below the horse's overall average. Trainer Martin Keighley's yard at Luckley in Gloucestershire has been in decent form this season with nineteen winners to its name, so the stable is functioning well even if Emailandy itself has stalled. At eight years old, the horse is not yet over the hill, but time is running shorter for a revival. A return to Class 3 company—and perhaps back to Plumpton, where it has shown it can win—might offer the best hope of a third career victory, though the long layoff from the winner's circle suggests something may have shifted.
