Havin A Flyer

The recent form paints an encouraging picture. In the last six races, Havin A Flyer has finished second, third, fourth, and third again — a run of placings that shows consistency without yet delivering another win. The horse is clearly competitive and capable of running well at the tracks it contests regularly. Trainer Rebecca Menzies, who runs a winning yard from Morden in Durham with 36 winners sent out this season, will be hoping to build on that Southwell breakthrough. Regular rider Kaiya Fraser has had six races aboard without a win, so there may be room for optimism if another jockey can click with the horse, or if Fraser benefits from the settling effect of that recent victory.

At Class 5 level — the foundation tier of racing — Havin A Flyer has yet to win, but the sprinting profile suggests that narrow trips suit this horse far better than longer races. With only three sprint attempts to date, there is limited data, but one win from three is a genuine calling card. If Menzies can run the horse back at sprint distances where it thrives, there is a realistic chance of another winner within reach.
