The career arc is an interesting one. That first win came at Newbury back in October 2022, and since then the horse has added five more, most recently at Chester in August 2025. Chester is a notoriously tight, almost oval-shaped track that suits certain horses far better than others — winning there is not just about raw ability but about how well a horse handles an unusual environment. The fact that its most recent victory came there is worth noting.

The bulk of its racing has come at Class 4 level — solid, competitive races without being the very top tier of the sport — and it has won 4 of 14 at that grade, which works out at just under 1 in every 3.5 races. That is a perfectly respectable return and suggests it knows how to win when conditions suit. Thirteen places from 22 races also tells you this is a horse that runs honestly and is rarely out of the picture entirely.

The recent form reads 8-4-1-11-7-3 from its last six outings (with 1 being a win), which paints a slightly mixed picture — a victory sandwiched between some moderate efforts. The 11th-place finish stands out as an off day, though every horse has them. The trainer, Jennie Candlish, operating out of Basford in Staffordshire, has sent out 61 winners this season, which suggests the yard is in confident form and horses are running fit and ready. A well-performing yard returning a horse after six months off is a much better sign than a struggling one doing the same.

Six months is a meaningful absence, and there will be a question mark over whether it returns at its peak today. But with a trainer in fine fettle and a horse that has shown it can win at this level, Its All About You is precisely the kind of consistent, unfussy performer that tends to make its presence felt sooner rather than later.
