Flora of Bermuda
Flora Of Bermuda has the look of a horse that knows exactly where it runs best. The 5-year-old has won 5 of its 23 races — a respectable 22% win rate — but what matters most is where those victories have come. At York, the horse is genuinely special: 2 wins from just 5 races there, which is far better than its overall record and suggests a real affinity with the track. Similarly, on fast, dry ground, Flora Of Bermuda lights up, winning 3 of its last 9 races (33%), compared to a much shakier record when conditions turn soft or muddy.Based on TrackLab's analysis
📊 Key numbers
Career totals for this horse
🔍 Full analysis
Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
The horse's recent form tells a story of a performer in good order. Over its last six races, it has been second, tenth, first, first, eighteenth, and first — that is 3 wins from 6 outings, and it raced just a week ago, so it is actively competing. Andrew Balding's yard at Kingsclere has been on fire this season with 202 winners, and Flora Of Bermuda is clearly thriving there. It showed genuine quality in July 2024 when it won a top-level Class 1 race at York, proof that it can mix it with the best on its day.
The one small note: the horse typically races in Class 1 company, the most competitive tier, where it has managed just 1 win from 14 attempts (7%). That 7% win rate in top races explains why Flora Of Bermuda shines brightest at York and on fast ground — those are the conditions and venues where it can cut through the field. Put it on a dry track in the northwest and the horse becomes genuinely dangerous.
