Jullou De Grissay

There's a horse that took its time finding the winner's enclosure, but when it finally did, it made it count. Jullou De Grissay is a 7-year-old trained by Charlie Longsdon at his yard in Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire — a setup that has been in fine form this season, sending out 31 winners. That productive background makes Jullou De Grissay something of an outlier: across 12 races, the horse has managed just 1 win and 4 places, a win rate of roughly 1 in every 12 races.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

That sole win came at Worcester on 20 August 2025, and it remains the only time Jullou De Grissay has reached the front. What makes it notable is the context: the horse had been running mainly at Class 4 level — a mid-tier category where consistent performers usually pick up at least the occasional win — and had gone 0 from 4 at that level before finding the breakthrough elsewhere. In other words, when the horse finally clicked, it was on its own terms, at its own track.

The partnership with amateur jockey Mr James King is the most established the horse has known, and it's where that win came from. Together they've raced five times and won once, a 20% win rate — win 1 in every 5 races together — which is actually a more encouraging picture than the overall career record suggests. Recent form tells a different story, though: the last six runs read 3-9-8-4-1-4, meaning Jullou De Grissay followed that Worcester win with a string of modest efforts, finishing well down the field in the two most recent outings. Having raced just one day ago, the horse is clearly being kept busy, and Longsdon's yard is in the kind of form that suggests they believe there's more to come. Whether that Worcester win was a turning point or just a brief highlight in an otherwise modest career remains to be seen — but at seven, with a busy trainer and a jockey who has already found the way to win on this horse, the story isn't finished yet.
