Jannas Journey

Trained by Jim Goldie at his yard in Uplawmoor, Lanarkshire, Jannas Journey is part of a genuinely productive operation. Goldie's team has sent out 88 winners this season alone — that is not a lucky streak, that is a well-run yard firing on all cylinders. The horse's preferred partner in the saddle is Daniel Tudhope, and the numbers there are almost hard to believe: 5 wins from 6 races together, which works out to better than 4 in every 5 rides. When those two are paired up, something clearly clicks.

Now five years old, Jannas Journey got its career off the mark at Hamilton Park in July 2025, and things have moved quickly since. The most recent win came at Ayr in September 2025, and recent form of 10-9-2-6-3-1 tells an honest story: there have been some quiet efforts, but there have also been placed runs and a winner mixed in. The last two outings — a second and then finishing down the field — suggest the horse is still in the mix even when things do not fall perfectly.

At Class 6 level, Jannas Journey has won 4 of 7 races — that is 57%, well over half. Class 6 is the entry level of British racing, and there is no shame in that; it takes real consistency to keep winning at any level. What is slightly intriguing is whether the team might eventually test the horse at a higher grade, given how efficiently it has handled races at this level. For now, though, with 88 winners already in the bag for the yard this season and a horse that was racing just one day ago, the momentum is very much there.
