Fulford Cross
Now a 4-year-old with just one win at a 6% win rate overall, the horse has shown signs of being a willing competitor — three top-3 finishes in addition to that single victory suggest it knows how to run respectably — but that December success at Lingfield remains a lonely highlight across ten months of racing since.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
The recent form tells a familiar story. In its last six races, Fulford Cross has finished fifth three times and eighth once, with fifth and fifth sandwiching those results. That stretch speaks to a horse that is running regularly without quite finding the finishing kick needed to trouble the top-3 finishes. At Class 6 level — the lower echelon of racing — the win rate improves to 1 win from 6 races, suggesting the horse may be more competitive at that tier, yet even there consistency has not translated into another victory.
David Simcock's Newmarket yard has been in fine form this season with 39 winners to its name, but Fulford Cross has not been part of that success run since December. The horse is active and racing regularly enough — it ran just yesterday — which at least shows it is sound and willing to take its chances. For now it remains a horse with one good day in its record: that Lingfield win on 17 December. Everything since has been a search for a second.
