What makes No News worth watching is how clearly his strengths emerge from the data. He absolutely thrives on wet or muddy ground, winning 2 of his 13 races on such conditions—a 15% win rate that is dramatically better than his overall average and suggests he has genuine class on the cut-up. He is also a course specialist at Kempton, with 2 wins from 13 races there, a track that clearly plays to his strengths. Over his preferred distances of seven furlongs to a mile, he has won both his races from 23 attempts, a 9% win rate that is solid for a horse in his league. When the setup is right—wet ground, a mile, Kempton—he has a real chance.
Lewis Edmunds has ridden him in 9 races and won twice, a 22% win rate with the horse that is notably higher than his overall form. The jockey clearly knows how to get the best from him. Trained by J. R. Jenkins in Royston, Hertfordshire, the horse remains active and raced just a day ago. At six years old, No News is entering the later phase of his career, and with a dry spell this long, time may be running against him. But on the right day, with wet ground and an astute jockey in the saddle, he remains capable of reminding people why he won twice at all.
