Great Success
There is an unfortunate irony in the name Great Success, because this three-year-old has yet to get off the mark in eight races, with just a single placed finish to show for all that effort. A win rate of zero from eight attempts is a tough reality, and for a yard that clearly knows how to find the winner's enclosure — Richard and Peter Fahey at Musley Bank in North Yorkshire have sent out 23 winners already this season — the horse has not exactly been doing its bit.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
The recent form figures of 5-4-5-11-11-4 tell a familiar story: close enough on occasion to suggest there is something there, but not quite able to cross the line first. That fourth-place finish is the most recent bright spot in the sequence, which at least hints the horse has not completely lost its way. Racing just yesterday, Great Success is clearly an active campaign rather than a horse being carefully managed around problems.
At three years old, there is still time for the name to become prophetic rather than comedic. The Fahey operation is a serious one, and yards with 23 winners on the board in a season do not run horses without believing there is a race to be won somewhere. Whether Great Success can find it is the open question — but for now, the scoreboard is not on its side.
