Mr Withington
Mr Withington is a five-year-old horse that has yet to taste victory after fifteen races, though he has managed two placings along the way. The horse typically competes in Class 5 races—the lower tier of British racing—where he has run five times without winning. That second-place finish stands out as his most recent highlight, but it came sandwiched between a series of mid-field efforts that suggest he is struggling to find the winning formula at this level.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
Trained by Ewan Whillans at Hawick in the Scottish Borders, Mr Withington is part of a yard that has had a solid season, sending out 28 winners. The trainer clearly knows how to get horses over the line, which makes Mr Withington's lack of breakthrough all the more puzzling. Still active and having raced just a day ago, the horse remains in work and in the mix for future opportunities. Whether he can finally convert his efforts into a win remains to be seen, but with fifteen races run and only placings to show for it, time may be running out for this five-year-old to prove he belongs in the winner's circle.
