Myna
Myna is a 5-year-old who has yet to find a settled place in the racing world, though recent form suggests something is beginning to click. The horse has won twice from 27 races, a modest 7% win rate, but those victories carry real meaning: both came at the kind of distance where Myna actually performs—over a mile and a quarter or a mile and three furlongs. At those distances, Myna has won 2 of 17 races, nearly doubling its overall win rate to 12%. That is the kind of specificity that trainers build plans around. The most recent win came at Leicester three months ago, which means Myna is still an active, competing horse and not one fading out of the picture.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis
Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
Trained by Tony Carroll at Cropthorne in Worcestershire, Myna operates in a busy yard that has sent out 136 winners already this season. The horse most often races in Class 6 company—the lowest grade of competitive racing—where it has won 1 of 10 races. It sounds thin on the surface, but this is a horse that knows how to break its maiden and win when given the chance. The partnership with regular jockey Dougie Costello has not yielded a victory in five rides together, suggesting neither has found the ideal race or conditions for Myna yet. What matters more is the shape of recent racing: two fourth-place finishes bookend three races that produced a win and two placings. That is the kind of form that keeps a trainer saddling a horse up, race after race, waiting for the next opening.
