Greek Flower
Greek Flower is a seven-year-old who has spent three years chasing a second win. The horse has raced 35 times and won just twice — both victories coming within two weeks in autumn 2023, at Navan on 18 October and at The Curragh on 31 October. Since that second win, now 35 months behind her, Greek Flower has managed 14 places but no wins, a stark reminder of how hard it is to break through at any level of racing. With a win rate of roughly 1 in every 17 races across her career, she is a horse who finds the frame regularly enough — she has been placed 14 times from 35 starts — but whose path to victory has been firmly closed for nearly three years.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis
Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
John James Feane trains Greek Flower at his Curragh yard in County Kildare, where the team has sent out eight winners this season. Jamie Powell rides the horse most often, though his record aboard Greek Flower stands at 1 win from 8 races, better than the horse's overall win rate but still far from a strong partnership. Greek Flower raced as recently as yesterday, and her last six outings tell a story of modest form: a sixth place, followed by a run we don't have details for, then a sixth, a fifth, a 14th, and a sixth at the end. There is nothing here to suggest imminent improvement, but nor is there anything catastrophic — she remains active and is still being run, which means her the yard believe there is a race left in her somewhere.
