Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
TrackLab's detailed breakdown

Richard and Peter Fahey's yard at Musley Bank has saddled the horse for all its races, and it represents steady, competent training of a moderate performer. What stands out more sharply is Havana Rum's course record at Ripon: the horse has won twice from just three races there, a win rate that suggests genuine liking for the track. When Havya Rum gets to Ripon, it has something to prove and the ability to prove it. The horse last tasted victory at Chelmsford on 4 December 2025, and hasn't found the winner's circle in its last six runs—a lean spell that suggests the stable may be searching for the right race and conditions to get the horse back on the board. Oisin Orr has been the regular rider, combining for 2 wins from 17 races together, broadly in line with the horse's overall win rate. The horse is still active and racing, so there is time yet for another win to arrive.
