Kiss Me My Love

Her last six runs read 8-10-6-1-5-11, which means she went from struggling at the back end of fields to winning outright, then placed again — the kind of profile that suggests a horse who runs her best when everything clicks rather than one who grinds out results week after week. That win came at Beverley in September 2025, which is six months ago now, but she has raced just nine days ago and is clearly still in active training at Roger Fell's yard in Nawton, North Yorkshire. Fell has been in good form this season, sending out 22 winners, so Kiss Me My Love is part of a stable operating with real confidence.

Her preferred trip is between a mile and one furlong and a mile and two furlongs — a middle-distance range where she has won 1 from 4 races, or 25%. That converts to winning one in every four at that distance, which is comfortably her best record anywhere and double what she manages overall. When the team pitch her at that trip, they know they are giving her the best chance. Joe Fanning, who rides her most regularly, has been aboard for 6 of her races and won once — roughly 1 in 6 (17%) — a reasonable return for a horse still searching for consistency.

She tends to race at Class 4, which sits in the middle tier of British racing — competitive enough that you cannot win without genuine ability, but not the rarefied air of the big occasions. Winning 1 from 7 at that level (14%) is honest rather than spectacular. Her first career win came at Carlisle back in June 2024, and adding a second at Beverley more than a year later showed she has not gone backwards. The puzzle with Kiss Me My Love is whether she can find a third win before the season moves on — and at her right distance, with Fanning aboard, it would be unwise to rule it out.
