Farabove The Limit

Farabove The Limit is on fire. The 3-year-old broke through for a first win at Carlisle in late August, and has barely looked back since — it won three races in a row before its most recent outing just a day ago, which means this horse is running hot and being kept busy by trainer Phillip Makin's Easingwold yard. Over 11 races so far, it has won 3 and finished in the top 3 a further 4 times, a win rate of roughly 1 in every 4 races that marks it out as a genuinely useful performer at this level.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
TrackLab's detailed breakdown

What makes this horse worth watching is Newcastle. It holds a special affinity for that track — 2 wins from 4 races there is the kind of win rate that turns a course into a happy hunting ground. That last win came just this week, on 16 October, suggesting Makin knows exactly where to send this horse when the chips are down. The recent form reads 1-1-1-9-4-8 (most recent first), which tells you the three wins came at the start of that run, then the form dipped — a pattern common enough in racing, but what matters is that Farabove The Limit bounced back and won again immediately after. That kind of consistency, combined with the Newcastle edge, marks this as a horse with genuine ability and a trainer who knows how to place it right.
