Kaleidoscope Eyes

Kaleidoscope Eyes is a horse that knows exactly where it likes to run. This 4-year-old gelding, trained by Bernard Llewellyn at his yard in Mid Glamorgan, has carved out a distinctive pattern across its career: it thrives at Ffos Las, the track in South Wales where it has won 3 of its 7 races there. That's a remarkable win rate for a horse that has only 4 wins from 30 outings overall. Just this week, on 27 September, it posted its most recent victory at that same track, suggesting the course suits its running style perfectly.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
TrackLab's detailed breakdown

The horse's broader record tells the story of a modest performer in the lower classes, winning roughly 1 in every 8 races at Class 6 level, where it contests most of its races. Yet the recent form is encouraging: Kaleidoscope Eyes has won 2 of its last 6 starts, including that victory at Ffos Las. Before that, it had gone through a lengthy spell without winning — 11 races without a success — before breaking that drought at Wolverhampton back in January. The inconsistency is real, but when conditions suit it, the horse can deliver.

Distance also matters. Over the middle distances it prefers — around 1 mile 1 furlong to 1 mile 2 furlongs — Kaleidoscope Eyes has won 1 of its 4 races at those lengths, a 25% win rate that hints at where its best chances lie. With Bernard Llewellyn's yard in decent form this season, having sent out 12 winners already, there is scope for improvement. For a horse that races so regularly, placing runs are healthy too: 11 places from 30 races means it is competitive more often than not. At Ffos Las, where it clearly feels at home, Kaleidoscope Eyes remains a horse capable of surprising at good odds.
