Gemini Man

Gemini Man is a steady, reliable performer who has found his niche in mid-tier racing. At eight years old and with 49 races under his belt, he is an experienced campaigner with a win rate of just over 1 in 10 races—respectable for a horse operating at his level. His five career wins and 22 places suggest a horse that gets into the mix regularly without dominating, the kind that racing fans come to respect for consistency rather than brilliance.Based on TrackLab's analysis

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

What stands out is his recent resurgence. Three months ago, in June 2026, he won at Musselburgh—his most recent victory—and his last six runs show the form of a horse still capable of running well: three places out of the last six races, with finishes of second twice. That is the profile of a horse close to winning again, not one fading away. Trainer Iain Jardine's yard at Carrutherstown has been in excellent form this season with 57 winners already, and the trainer's recent comments suggest Gemini Man has found his sweet spot. He appears to be a better horse over hurdles than on the Flat, and the stable has identified a race at the first Kelso meeting as an ideal opportunity—a clear sign that the yard believe another win is within reach.

The statistics paint a picture of a horse with definite preferences. On normal ground conditions, he wins roughly 1 in 4 races (3 wins from 11), compared to his overall rate. Over distances between 1 mile 1 furlong and 1 mile 2 furlongs, he has won 2 of 11 races. At Class 6 level, where he typically competes, he wins at a rate of 1 in 4 races (2 wins from 9)—all of which suggests that when the conditions, distance, and company align, Gemini Man is a competitive horse. With Danny McMenamin his regular jockey and the yard clearly keen to find him a winning race soon, this eight-year-old looks set for more success before his time is up.
