Rajapour

That one moment of glory came at Wolverhampton on 15 December 2025, and it remains the sole tick in the win column seven months on. Wolverhampton's all-weather track suits certain horses that struggle to make their mark elsewhere, and for Rajapour, it delivered. The problem is it hasn't been repeated since — the last six races have produced finishes of 4th, 3rd, 3rd, 6th, 9th, and 4th, a sequence that shows Rajapour is competitive enough to be in the mix without quite finding the extra gear to win.

The level Rajapour competes at is worth noting. Class 4 races sit in the middle tier of British racing, and at that level the horse has managed 0 wins from 12 races. That's a blank record across nearly half its career at this grade, which suggests the class might just be a fraction too tough on a consistent basis — though those placing efforts show it isn't being outclassed either. Regular jockey Mark Winn has had 8 rides on board without a win between them, though that says more about the horse's overall record than any particular partnership issue.

O'Meara's yard is in strong form this season — 101 winners is a serious tally, the kind of number that marks out one of the more productive operations in the north of England. Rajapour is one of the quieter members of what is clearly a busy and successful stable. Raced just yesterday, it remains in active training, and another run is presumably not far away. Whether Wolverhampton magic strikes again remains to be seen.
