Ghasham

There is something quietly stubborn about Ghasham that makes him worth watching. The seven-year-old has won 3 times from 32 races — roughly 1 in every 11 outings — which is not a headline number, but it tells only part of the story. His recent form is genuinely sharp: in his last six races he has finished first, second, second, third, first, and first — a sequence that suggests a horse who has found something late in his career and is running the best races of his life.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

That last win came at Hexham just two weeks ago, and Ghasham is already back in action, having raced again only yesterday. Sam England, his trainer based in Guiseley in West Yorkshire, has had a productive season — 49 winners sent out from the yard so far — and clearly has this horse in good enough shape to keep him busy. When a yard is operating at that volume, they know when a horse is ready, and Ghasham looks ready.

The most intriguing quirk in his record is the relationship with jockey Charlie Todd. Together they have run seven times and not won once. Zero from seven. Yet Ghasham keeps winning with other riders aboard, which raises an obvious question about whether that partnership will be tested much further. His first career win came at Cork back in April 2022, and his most recent at Hexham in June 2026 — a four-year gap between first and latest, but the present form suggests the best may still be arriving.

Over distances of a mile and three to a mile and four furlongs, he wins 1 in every 4 races — 25% at that trip, which stands out sharply against the rest of his record. At his most common level of competition he has not won in 13 attempts there, which sounds damning until you see the recent results. Sometimes a horse clicks, form catches up with potential, and the numbers start looking different. Ghasham appears to be in one of those patches right now.
