Krissy

The overall picture is impressive too. Across 18 races, Krissy has won 5 and finished in the places 8 more times, meaning it has come home in the first three on 13 occasions. That is a win rate of roughly 1 in every 3.5 races — 28% if you want the number — which is well above average for any horse at this level. At Class 6, the bread-and-butter tier of British racing, it has won 2 from 8, but that understates the story: three of those five career wins have come at a longer trip of around a mile and a furlong to a mile and two furlongs. In fact, at that particular distance, Krissy has won all three races it has run — a perfect record that tells you exactly where the trainer wants to point it next.

Speaking of the trainer: Jim Goldie, based at Uplawmoor in Lanarkshire, is having a serious season. His yard has sent out 88 winners already, which is the kind of output that marks out a genuinely busy, well-organised operation rather than a small stable getting lucky. When a yard is firing at that rate, the horses in form tend to stay in form — they are placed carefully and kept confident.

Krissy also has a particular fondness for Musselburgh, the tight, flat track on the Firth of Forth near Edinburgh. Two wins from four races there is a 50% record — wins half its races at a single track — which is the sort of stat that makes local racegoers pay close attention whenever the name appears in the card. It got its career off the ground at Newcastle back in November 2025, and has barely looked back since.

The recent form line reads 10-1-1-2-1-7, which in plain terms means a slightly rough patch early on but two wins on the spin before last week's blip, and then straight back to winning at Carlisle. That bounce-back quality — losing, then immediately winning — is a quiet sign of a horse that does not stay down for long.
