Mohaab

That sole win came at Nottingham on 19 May 2026, and it arrived at a distance of around a mile and three to four furlongs. Over that longer trip, Mohaab has won 1 from 4 races — 25%, or one in every four — which is a dramatically better record than his overall numbers suggest. The implication is straightforward: get him out far enough and he becomes a genuinely competitive horse. Keep him short and you are asking him to do something he does not do naturally.

Jockey Lewis Edmunds has been the one most often steering him, partnering Mohaab in 7 of his 12 races and picking up that single win together. That works out to roughly 1 win in every 7 rides — not spectacular, but the partnership has clearly built some familiarity, and there is a reasonable argument that Edmunds knows this horse's quirks better than anyone. Recent form reads 2-4-1-5-6-4 going back through his last six runs, which shows a horse that blows hot and cold but did manage a placed finish just yesterday, confirming he is fit and competing right now.

The slight puzzle in Mohaab's record is that he has yet to win at Class 5 level — 0 from 3 — despite that being where he competes most often. His win at Nottingham actually came at a different level, which raises a quiet question about where he is most comfortable. The Muir and Grassick yard has been in decent form this season, sending out 20 winners, so the infrastructure around Mohaab is solid. The key for the yard — sorry, for the team at Lambourn — will be finding the right combination of distance, track, and conditions. When those things align, as they did six weeks ago at Nottingham, Mohaab is capable of winning. The job now is making that happen more than once in a dozen attempts.
