Grey Soul

The recent sequence tells the real story. After a blank early in that six-race stretch, Grey Soul won, won again, dipped to a fourth, then won a third time — at Ffos Las just this week on 29 June 2026. That is a horse in the middle of a purple patch, and it arrived just eight months after its first career win at Newcastle back in October 2025. The progress has been rapid.

The one note of caution is the level at which Grey Soul has been competing. The horse has raced predominantly at Class 5, which is towards the lower end of the racing ladder in Britain. At that level, it has won just 1 from 6 — roughly 1 in every 6 races — which means the recent winning streak has come in slightly different company. That is not a criticism, but it is worth understanding: the question everyone around the horse will be quietly asking is whether this form translates if the yard decide to step it up.

Dan Horsford trains Grey Soul from his yard in Marlborough, Wiltshire, and the operation has sent out 6 winners already this season — a solid return that suggests the yard is in good nick. A trainer firing winners at this point in the season, combined with a horse in form, is usually a combination worth paying attention to.

At just four years old, Grey Soul is still relatively early in its career, and three wins from ten races — 30%, or roughly 1 in every 3 outings — is a strong overall record. Whether the yard pushes it into tougher races or keeps it where the winning is good, the next few months should tell us a great deal about just how far this horse can go.
