Peter The Wolf

There is a horse that has made its supporters wait, but when the moment finally arrived, it arrived at Chepstow. Peter The Wolf is a 4-year-old trained by Warren Greatrex at Upper Lambourn in Berkshire, and after 14 races he has found winning genuinely hard work — just 1 victory from 14 outings puts his win rate at roughly 1 in every 14 races, or 7%. That is a modest return, but it does not tell the whole story.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

What the record does show is that Peter The Wolf is not without ability. Six places from those 14 races means he has finished in the money almost half the time, which suggests a horse that competes honestly and tries hard even when the winner's enclosure stays out of reach. His recent form reads 11-6-12-1-7-2, and the pattern is interesting — that solitary "1" sandwiched between some ordinary efforts points to a horse who has it in him on the right day, even if those days do not come around often.

That winning day was 2 September 2025 at Chepstow, his one and only career victory so far. He typically runs in Class 5 company — the entry-level tier of British racing — and has won 1 from 4 at that level, which works out at 25%, or 1 in every 4 races. That is a far more encouraging number than his overall record suggests, and it hints that when conditions and class align in his favour, he is competitive. Edward Greatrex, who is also the trainer's son, has ridden him in 10 of his 14 races and shares that sole win — they know each other well, which counts for something.

Warren Greatrex has been in fine form this season, sending out 50 winners from Upper Lambourn, so Peter The Wolf is part of a busy and successful yard even if he has not been its star turn. He raced just yesterday, meaning he is very much in active training and his the yard are clearly keeping him busy. Whether he can add to that Chepstow win any time soon remains the question — but a horse who has shown he can win at his level, ridden by a jockey who knows him inside out, from a yard hitting its straps, is never entirely without a chance.
