Ladiam

Ladiam is a nine-year-old who has learned the hard way that consistency beats brilliance in racing. Over 36 races, she has won just three times — roughly one victory in every twelve outings — but what makes her interesting is not what she has managed, but where and when she manages it. Last raced just a day ago, he remains actively campaigned by trainer Norman Lee's yard at Gort in County Galway, and there are clear patterns to his form that suggest he knows exactly what he likes.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 has a genuine fondness for slightly soft ground, winning two of eight races (a 25% win rate) when conditions turn wet or muddy — more than double her overall average. This is a significant quirk in a horse's profile, the kind of detail that keeps a trainer and jockey alert to weather forecasts. At Sligo, Ladiam has become something of a specialist, winning twice from seven races at the track, which means she has found the place more forgiving than most. Her most recent win came at Listowel on 26 September — three weeks ago — showing she can still find the line when the opportunity presents itself.

Jockey G B Noonan, his most frequent partner, has ridden him seven times for one win, a modest 14% win rate, though raw numbers matter less here than the partnership's ability to read a race. Her recent form reads 6-1-2-7-4-3 across her last six outings, a mixed bag that includes a win, two top-3 finishes, and the odd poor day. At this stage of her career, Ladiam is a horse that will not win often, but knows her game and is ready when the conditions and track align in her favour.
