Madjid

The pattern to his racing is becoming clear. Madjid really finds his feet when he's stretched over a mile and three furlongs to a mile and four furlongs. Over that distance, he's won 2 of his 6 races, a 33% win rate that's well above his overall average. It's the kind of trip that seems to suit whatever his racing style is, and it's worth remembering if he lines up in that sort of race again. His first career win came at Newmarket on 18 July, and he's been competitive enough since then to suggest he belongs at this level.

He's trained by Harry Charlton at Beckhampton in Wiltshire, a yard that's been in good form this season with 38 winners to its name. Madjid still has room to improve at three years old, and with two wins already under his belt and momentum on his side, there's every reason to expect he'll win more races before the season ends.
