Here Comes Georgie

Perth is where Georgie finds his best form. He has won 3 of his last 5 races there — a success rate that looks almost invincible by comparison to his record elsewhere. Last August, he won a Class 2 race at the Scottish track, the kind of win that marks a horse as capable of competing at a decent level. He returned to Perth exactly one year later and did it again, winning another Class 2 in August 2025. This is not luck. Perth suits him, and his trainer Dylan Cunha knows it. The yard, based at Newmarket, has been prolific this season with 47 winners already, but Georgie remains a specialist in a small operation.

His recent form tells a more cautious story. Over his last six races, he has finished third twice and second once, but has not won since August. That eight-month drought is notable for a horse who was winning regularly the year before. When he does race at Class 4 level — his typical hunting ground — he wins roughly 1 in every 4 times, which is respectable but unremarkable. Lee Edwards, his most frequent jockey, has ridden him 10 times with 2 wins, a 20% win rate that sits slightly below his career average. Last raced just 22 days ago, Georgie remains active and in work, though his current form suggests he may need Perth or another favourable setup to break back into the winner's circle.
