Green Icon
Green Icon has not won a race in nearly two years, but there is something quietly intriguing about this four-year-old's record at the right distance and track combination. The horse has won both its races at distances between seven furlongs and a mile — exactly twice in 11 attempts at that sweet spot — which suggests it finds its best form when given room to stride but not asked to battle over a longer trip. More striking still is its success in Class 5 company: two wins from three races in the lower divisions, a 67% win rate that stands in sharp contrast to the modest 8% win rate across 26 career starts. This is a horse that can beat its peers when conditions align, even if consistency has proved elusive.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
The downside is impossible to ignore. Green Icon has not tasted the winner's enclosure since Haydock Park on 5 September 2024 — nearly two years of racing without a victory. Its last six outings have yielded three third-place finishes and little else, and J M Sheridan, who rides it most often, has drawn a blank from nine races together. That recent form does not inspire confidence, and the partnership between horse and regular jockey looks stale. The Kenfig Hill yard trained by John and Rhys Flint is a modest operation, sending out only eight winners this season, which means Green Icon is unlikely to benefit from top-tier coaching or fresh ideas. At this stage, the horse feels like it has said what it needed to say on the racecourse — a lower-level performer who found a couple of wins and has been chasing them ever since.
