Ey Up Its Jazz

Ey Up Its Jazz is a seven-year-old whose best days may well be behind him. The horse has won 5 races from 32 outings over his career — a win rate of roughly 1 in every 6 races — and hasn't tasted victory in his last six races, the most recent of which came just yesterday. At this stage of his life, with dwindling form, he sits firmly in the middle band of racing, where consistency matters more than fireworks.Based on TrackLab's analysis

TrackLab's detailed breakdown

What makes Ey Up Its Jazz worth watching is Thirsk. The course sits about an hour from his home base at Norton in North Yorkshire, trained by Tony Coyle and Kaine Wood, and he has made himself a proper specialist there. He has won 2 of his 6 races at the track — a win rate of one win in three outings — and his most recent victory came there on 15 September 2025. That was a year ago, which tells you how lean the winning spell has been lately. When the distance stretches to 1 mile 1 furlong or 1 mile 2 furlongs, he shows improvement: he has won 1 of 3 races at those trips, suggesting he is at least better suited to a bit of ground.

In the saddle, David Nolan has been his most reliable pilot, winning 2 of 9 races together for a win rate of 22 percent. That is a meaningful edge over the horse's overall record and worth noting if Nolan is booked for a Thirsk race at the right distance. The yard has sent out 12 winners already this season, so there is some vitality there. Ey Up Its Jazz will need to rediscover something he has lost if he is to add to his five wins, but at Thirsk, with the right race and the right jockey, he remains capable of troubling the judge.
