Queenie St Clair

Queenie St Clair is a horse that knows exactly what it likes and performs accordingly. The six-year-old has won 4 of its 33 races overall—a win rate of roughly 1 in 8—but the real story lies in the pattern of those victories. Put Queenie on slightly soft ground at a Class 4 race, and something clicks. In those conditions, the horse has won half its races: 2 wins from 4 attempts. That is genuine form. By contrast, at other levels and on faster ground, Queenie struggles to find the winner's enclosure, which suggests the trainer and jockey Colin Keane have learned to be selective rather than hopeful.Based on TrackLab's analysis

TrackLab's detailed breakdown

Trained by Nick Scholfield at Lambourn, Queenie has been racing for over two years, with the first win coming at Naas on 14 October 2023. The most recent victory came at Kelso on 21 March 2026—six months ago. In the last six races, the horse has shown promise, winning twice, though consistency remains elusive: third, sixth, first, blank, first, and then third in the most recent outing just a day ago. Keane, who has ridden Queenie nine times, has steered the horse to one win from those nine races, suggesting their partnership works best in specific circumstances rather than as a default combination.

Distance-wise, Queenie performs best when asked to run between a mile and six furlongs and two miles. Over that span, the win rate improves to 1 in 4 races. At five furlongs or less, or beyond two miles, the horse simply does not win. That is valuable information for plotting the next move. Nick Scholfield's yard has sent out 22 winners this season, so Queenie is part of a functioning operation. Expect to see this horse targeted at Class 4 races over soft ground at the right distance—the formula that has worked before will likely be tried again.
