Hermetic
Hermetic is a 4-year-old with a difficult record to defend. The horse has run five times without a win or a place finish, failing to find the frame in every single outing. More recently, things have not improved — the last five races show mid-field finishes all the way through, with a best effort of fourth place coming twice. Hermetic was last on the track just a day ago and is still actively racing.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis
Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
The horse is trained by Ian Williams at Portway in Worcestershire, a yard that has been in fine form this season with 96 winners to its name. That kind of win rate suggests the stable knows how to get horses winning, which raises a question about where Hermetic fits into the bigger picture. With no wins and no places from five attempts, this is plainly a horse struggling to find its level — or possibly one that simply does not have the ability to trouble the judge at the distances and class it has been entered in. For now, Hermetic remains a work in progress.
