Harry The Rogue

Those two wins do have a pattern worth noticing. Both came at distances of a mile and one or two furlongs, and Harry The Rogue has gone to the line first twice from 17 races at those trips — that's 12%, or roughly 1 in every 8 races when conditions suit. Compare that to a blank record at other distances, and it's clear the trainer Stephen Hanlon, based at Constable Burton in North Yorkshire, knows exactly where to look for opportunities. The yard has already sent out four winners this season, so they clearly know how to place a horse to give it its best chance.

The partnership with jockey Sam Coen is the most interesting number in this profile. Together they have won 2 of their 12 races — roughly 1 in every 6, a 17% win rate. For context, that's nearly three times better than the horse's overall record. Something clearly clicks between horse and rider, and when Coen is in the saddle at the right trip, Harry The Rogue becomes a genuinely different proposition.

The last win came at Killarney on 13 May 2025, with the first career success at Naas just weeks before that on 28 April. Two wins in quick succession, then nothing from the six races since — a run that includes a second and a third, but no return to the winner's enclosure. The most recent outing was just yesterday, so this horse is fresh, active, and clearly still being aimed at races by a trainer who believes there's more to come. Recent form of 10-9-4-2-3-6 suggests he's been running into the back half of the field more often lately, but that second place keeps the hope alive. The question now is whether Coen, the right distance, and a bit of luck can align before the season is out.
