Go Rimbaud

Go Rimbaud is a 3-year-old with the kind of form that keeps trainers and owners interested without quite breaking through as a consistent winner. Three wins from ten races means the horse wins roughly one race in every three or four attempts, and while that might not sound dominant, the real story is in the shape of the recent form. Over the last six races, Go Rimbaud has found the winner's circle twice — most impressively at Newmarket just this week, on 25 September. That win came after a run of uneven results, which suggests the horse is capable of picking itself up and delivering when it matters.Based on TrackLab's analysis

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

The first win came at Kempton Park back in April, and there is something encouraging about a horse that gets its head in front early in its career and then shows it can do it again. The placings matter too — seven times in ten races Go Rimbaud has finished in the money, which tells you the horse consistently runs to a respectable level even on days when victory does not come. With wins at both Kempton and Newmarket, the horse has proven it can perform across different tracks.

John & Thady Gosden's Newmarket yard is one of the most powerful in British racing, and they have sent out 140 winners already this season, so Go Rimbaud is training among serious competition. The fact that this horse is getting raced regularly and winning at a solid rate suggests the trainers see enough to keep bringing it back. At three years old, Go Rimbaud is still developing, and horses can surprise you at this age. A recent winner carries momentum, and with another race potentially coming soon, this is a horse worth watching to see if it can build on this week's success.
