Final Entry
Final Entry has found his place at Newton Abbot, and it shows. His first career victory came at the Devon circuit on 21 July 2024, and he has returned to the winner's enclosure there twice since, most recently on 23 June 2026. That victory came four months ago, and while his form has been patchy since then — a ninth place followed by a fourth, another fourth, a win, and then a third in his last six races — he remains actively racing and still shows enough to suggest Newton Abbot brings out the best in him.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis
Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
The bigger picture is less glittering. From 16 races overall, Final Entry has won just twice and picked up five places, giving him a win rate of roughly 1 in every 8 races. He runs most often in Class 4 company, where he has won once from four attempts — a 25% win rate that hints at genuine ability at that level, even if consistency has eluded him elsewhere. Trained by David Pipe at Nicholashayne in Somerset, Final Entry competes in a yard that has already sent out 37 winners this season, so there is clearly skill in the stable. The question for Final Entry is whether that skill can translate into steadier improvement or whether Newton Abbot remains his one true stage.
