Monoceros

Monoceros is a three-year-old with genuine ability at his best distance, though his current form suggests he is going through a patch. In 10 races, he has won twice and finished in the top 3 another four times, giving him a win rate of roughly 1 in 5. His sweet spot is races over 7 furlongs to a mile — at that distance he wins about half the time, having won 2 of his 4 races there. That is the kind of record that tells you where his real class lies.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
TrackLab's detailed breakdown

His first win came at Newmarket on 22 August 2025, and he struck again at Haydock Park on 5 September 2026 — but that victory now sits six weeks in the past. Since then, the form has deteriorated sharply. Over his last six runs, he has finished eighth, seventh, first, fifth, ninth, and fifth. That run of disappointing results — three near-disasters sandwiched around one good day — explains why the yard may be looking for the right opportunity to get him back on track. He raced just yesterday, so Iain Jardine's yard is keeping him active while hunting for a race to suit.

Jardine's operation at Carrutherstown has been prolific this season, sending out 57 winners, which suggests Monoceros is in a stable capable of getting the best from him. The horse has one win from three races at Class 4 level (33%), so that is where the team believes his peak performances come. Whether his current wobble is temporary or signals a change in his ability remains to be seen, but the bare facts — a 50% win rate at his ideal distance and a trainer in form — give reason to think better days lie ahead.
