Go Vince Go

The summer of 2025 was when things really clicked. A first career win at Hamilton Park on 12 August was followed just three weeks later by another victory at the same track — this time in a Class 2 race on 3 September. Winning twice at the same course in quick succession isn't luck; it suggests the horse genuinely suits the track, whether that's the shape of the circuit, the way the ground rides, or simply the distances on offer. Hamilton Park has become Go Vince Go's happy hunting ground, and that kind of affinity with a course is something trainers and jockeys take very seriously.

The horse then went one better by winning at York on 10 October — a venue that carries considerably more prestige and draws a stronger field. Winning there underlines that this isn't just a horse that flatters to deceive on a provincial circuit.

Ground conditions matter too. On soft or slightly wet ground, Go Vince Go has won 2 of 3 races — that's a 67% win rate, which is a remarkable return and worth keeping a close eye on when the autumn rain arrives. When jockey David Allan is in the saddle, the results are even more encouraging: 2 wins from 5 races together, or 40% of the time, which is an unusually productive partnership.

Behind the horse is Tim Easterby's yard at Great Habton in North Yorkshire — one of the busiest and most productive operations in the country, having sent out 138 winners this season alone. That level of output means Easterby knows how to place a horse to its best advantage, and Go Vince Go looks like one of the stable's smarter projects. Still only three, still racing, and already winning at Class 2 level — there's every reason to think the best is still to come.
