Quick Of The Night

The horse's only recent success came at Worcester on 7 July 2025, a win that ended a long dry spell. Before that, Quick Of The Night had not tasted victory in its last six races, finishing outside the placings three times. It raced just last week and is still actively competing, which speaks to either genuine consistency or the fact that the stable believes there are races it can win. Lee Edwards, its most frequent jockey, has ridden the horse in 16 races and won twice — a 12% win rate that slightly edges the horse's overall 10% return from 21 attempts. The pairing works, at least occasionally.

What makes Quick Of The Night interesting is its sharp record at Worcester, its home track. The horse has won 2 of its 10 races there — a 20% win rate at a single course, which is genuinely impressive for a horse of this level. When Quick Of The Night steps out at Worcester, it has a real chance. Elsewhere, the picture is much bleaker. That Worcester form has kept the horse's career ticking over, and trainer Dave Roberts, who runs his yard at Kenley in Shropshire, clearly sees enough to keep sending the horse out. Roberts has had six winners from his yard this season, so Quick Of The Night is part of a stable that does win races — just not all that often. When the horse competes in Class 5 races, its best level, it wins 2 of every 11 times. Most of the time it runs into horses just that bit too good. But at Worcester, on the right day, Quick Of The Night delivers.
