Liverpool Star
Liverpool Star broke through with his first win at Ripon on 25 April, a breakthrough that comes after months of near-misses. The 3-year-old has placed in five of his 16 races, suggesting he has the ability to get competitive but has struggled to find the winning formula more than once. His recent form reads 10-9-4-–-4-1, showing he was last in action just a day ago, when he returned to the track but did not land a blow. Since his solitary win four months back, he has been unable to recapture that moment—a pattern familiar to horses who win early and then find themselves chasing that success.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

🔍 Full Analysis
TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
With jockey Billy Garritty, Liverpool Star has notched one win from five rides together, a 20 per cent win rate that stands out against his overall record of one win from 16 races. The partnership suggests Garritty may bring something different, though the sample is small. Trained by Michael and David Easterby at Sheriff Hutton in North Yorkshire, Liverpool Star runs out of a yard that has already sent out 55 winners this season, indicating a stable with genuine firing power. When stepped up to Class 5 company—one of the tougher grades—the horse has yet to win, going 0 from 3, which hints that he may be more suited to easier races where he can compete on level terms.
Liverpool Star is a horse still finding his way, with one bright moment behind him and the consistency to place regularly but not yet the gear to win races often. He remains active and in work, meaning another opportunity could come soon.
