His win came at Exeter on 17 March 2026, and it remains his most recent outing, just three weeks ago. Exeter is a demanding, undulating track in Devon that sorts out horses quickly, and winning there is no small thing. With a record of 1 win from 4 races — a 25% win rate — Macklin has converted at a rate that most horses in training would envy.
He is trained by Will Biddick, based at Alhampton in Somerset. Biddick's yard has sent out one winner so far this season, and Macklin is it. For a small operation, having a horse this reliable in the string — one that places virtually every time it runs — is genuinely valuable. At ten, Macklin is an experienced competitor who knows his job, and his recent form of second, first, third reads like a horse right at the top of his game.
