Ground Force
Ground Force is a two-year-old still finding its feet on the track. The horse has run four times so far and has one placed finish to show for it — a second place — but is yet to break through into the winner's circle. Most recently, a week ago, Ground Force finished seventh, and before that came that second-place effort. The form is inconsistent, with a couple of wider runs mixed in, the sort of pattern you see from a young horse that hasn't quite worked out what racing is all about.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis
Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
Trained by James Owen at Newmarket, Ground Force is part of a yard that has been firing on all cylinders this season, sending out 205 winners. That kind of win rate suggests the trainer knows what he's doing, so there's every reason to think Ground Force could still improve as it gets more race experience under its belt. Young horses often need time to settle into the game, and a second-place finish suggests the ability is there — it just needs to translate into wins.
