It'sneverjustone

His last victory came at Galway on 28 July 2025, where jockey Declan McDonogh reported that the horse absolutely thrived on the soft, wet ground — a useful fact, because it gives his trainer David Loughnane something concrete to work with on race selection. Loughnane's Stoke Heath yard in Shropshire is in form this season with 39 winners to date, and he clearly had high hopes for this horse from the start. When the colt was shown during a stable tour in May 2024, Loughnane described him as "a pretty smart" prospect who would "progress through the ranks," a natural expectation given that It'sneverjustone is a half-brother to Aberama Gold and El Hombre, two horses that have combined to win around 20 races. The pedigree is respectable, and the trainer's confidence was genuine — but the racecourse has not always cooperated.

At four years old, It'sneverjustone remains a work in progress. His first win came at Ffos Las back in June 2025, followed by success at Galway just over a month later. Since then, 14 months have passed without a breakthrough, though the recent placings — including two fourths from his last three races — suggest he is competitive without quite managing to convert. The pattern is clear: he needs the right conditions, the right grade, and the right race. If Loughnane can thread that needle, there may yet be another chapter or two left in this horse's story.
