Golden Pharaoh
The five-year-old broke its duck at Ffos Las on 9 September 2025 — its sole victory in a 25-race career — but has not won again in the 13 months since. That one win came from 25 attempts, a record that barely qualifies as success: it wins roughly 1 in every 25 races. Over its last six races, the horse has finished nowhere near the podium, its most recent run just a day ago.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
The numbers tell a story of a horse treading water. When competing at distances between 7 furlongs and a mile — supposedly its sweet spot — Golden Pharaoh has won just 1 race from 15 attempts, a 7% win rate that hardly suggests an ideal trip. What is more troubling is its record in Class 4 races, the level at which it most often competes: 0 wins from 15 races. Scott Dixon's yard at Rolleston, Nottinghamshire, trains the horse and has been in good form this season with 33 winners, yet Golden Pharaoh remains its outlier — the horse that keeps turning up but rarely threatens to trouble the judge. Its most regular jockey, Kieran O'Neill, has ridden it six times without a win, which suggests little chemistry between horse and rider has developed. At five years old, Golden Pharaoh is no spring chicken in racing terms, and with little evidence of improvement, the gap between that one victory and the next grows wider with each outing.
