Final Entry

There is something almost poetic about a horse that keeps coming back to the same track and keeps winning there. Final Entry, a 5-year-old trained by David Pipe at his yard in Nicholashayne, Somerset, has a modest overall record — 2 wins and 5 places from 13 races — but hide those numbers and look only at Newton Abbot, and a different picture emerges. At that Devon circuit, Final Entry has won 2 of its 4 visits, including a win just three weeks ago on 23 June 2026. A horse that wins half its races at one particular venue is not just getting lucky; it is telling you something about itself.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

Across its career, Final Entry wins roughly 1 in every 7 races (15%), which is a perfectly respectable rate for a horse competing at this level. It races mostly at Class 4, the solid middle tier of the sport, and there it has won 1 from 4 — a 25% win rate, or 1 in every 4, which is genuinely strong. Pipe's yard has been in good form this season, sending out 37 winners, so Final Entry is part of a team that knows how to get horses ready to perform.

The recent form makes interesting reading: the last six runs read 4-1-3-4-6-6, with the most recent first. That means a win, a third place, and a fourth in its last three outings — a horse that is running into form at exactly the right time. It raced just yesterday, which means the team are clearly happy to keep it ticking over. Whether yesterday's run took anything out of it, or sharpened it further, is the question worth watching. But for anyone looking at this horse with fresh eyes, the Newton Abbot record is the thing to focus on. Two wins from four visits to the same track is the kind of consistency that catches the eye, and with Pipe's yard firing, there is every reason to think Final Entry has more to say this season.
