Herbygoesbananas
Herbygoesbananas is a 5-year-old that has found the wins hard to come by in recent times. The horse has won once in nine career races—that sole victory came at Huntingdon on 23 November 2024, now almost two years ago. Since then, it has gone 23 months without another win, though it has picked up three places along the way. Most recently, it raced just yesterday, finishing ninth—part of a lean stretch that has seen it fail to win in its last six outings.Based on TrackLab's analysis
📊 Key numbers
Career totals for this horse
🔍 Full analysis
Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
The horse competes regularly in Class 4 races, the sort of middle-ground contests that sit well below the sport's elite level. In three attempts at that grade, it has failed to win, which tells you something about where it sits in the pecking order. Overall, Herbygoesbananas wins roughly 1 in every 9 races, a rate that suggests it is a decent but modest performer. It is trained by Henrietta C Knight at West Lockinge in Oxfordshire, a yard that has sent out 15 winners this season and clearly knows its way around a horse. Whether Herbygoesbananas can rediscover the form that brought that single success at Huntingdon remains to be seen, but at five years old, it still has time to add to its tally.
