Lone Star

Lone Star is a nine-year-old who has won six races from 47 starts — a record that tells the story of a solid, dependable horse rather than a flashy talent. What stands out is not the overall win rate of roughly one win every eight races, but where those wins come from. On slightly soft or wet ground, this horse transforms: it has won four of its thirteen races in those conditions, a success rate of nearly one in three. That is the kind of edge that makes a horse valuable to its the yard, because it means Philip Kirby's yard can plan around the ground and point Lone Star at races it genuinely likes.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

The horse showed its best form in 2022 and early 2023, winning at Newcastle on Boxing Day before stepping up to claim a Class 2 race — one of Britain's top grades — at Musselburgh three months later. Since then, things have quietened. Lone Star has not won in nearly fourteen months, though it remains active and in decent form, placing in three of its last six races. Its relationship with jockey Joe Williamson is worth noting: together they have won six races from thirty-three attempts, a win rate of one win every five and a half rides, considerably better than the horse's overall average. That kind of partnership often matters more than raw statistics suggest.

Newcastle has been its happy hunting ground, with two wins from just four races there — a course record worth remembering. Whether age, harder ground conditions, or simply the natural ebb and flow of a long career has slowed Lone Star's winning run is impossible to say. What is clear is that this is a horse that knows how to win and has shown it can do so at the highest amateur levels. For a nine-year-old competitor in competitive racing, that remains something to build on.
