Recent form offers little encouragement. Muhib has not won in its last six races, finishing eighth, then third, second, third again, third once more, and fourth. Those third-place finishes suggest the horse is in the mix regularly enough, but never quite getting there when it matters. Working with jockey Cian Horgan — his most frequent partner — has produced six rides without a win either, which hints at a difficult pairing or simply a horse that has not yet clicked with one rider in particular.
Trainer Olly Williams, based at Market Rasen in Lincolnshire, has saddled just one winner all season, so the yard itself is not firing on all cylinders. For a horse like Muhib to break through, momentum in the yard would help. At this stage of his career — five years old and still hunting for that first win — time is becoming a factor. Horses don't often turn it around after 30 races without a victory, but Muhib is still racing and was out just yesterday, so the team clearly believes there is more to come.
