The career began to take shape with a first win at Redcar in October 2025, and Peaky Blinder has built on that steadily since. Two of the last 6 races have ended in victory, and the recent form — a fourth and a fourteenth sandwiched around two wins — tells the story of a horse still finding its feet at this level, capable of brilliance one day and a quiet run the next. The fourteenth is the one eyebrow-raiser in that sequence, but horses are not machines, and two wins from six is still a solid return.
The most recent victory came at Southwell in April 2026, around two months ago, and with a race just yesterday, this is clearly a horse that is kept busy and in good shape. Andrew Balding's yard at Kingsclere in Hampshire is one of the most productive operations in British racing right now — 202 winners sent out this season alone, which is an extraordinary volume. When a trainer is firing in winners at that rate, it tells you the horses in the yard are well-prepared and placed in the right races at the right time. Peaky Blinder is part of a team that clearly knows what it is doing.
At four, there is still time for this horse to develop further. The combination of a strong win rate, a busy schedule, and the backing of one of the country's most successful yards suggests Peaky Blinder is a horse worth keeping an eye on over the months ahead.
