What makes this particularly striking is the consistency of it. Rajawail almost always races at Class 6, which is the lowest tier of British racing — the entry-level division where horses who struggle to win anywhere else tend to gather. From 16 races at that level, the record is still zero wins. That is not a horse being pitched into races above its ability; that is a horse finding life difficult even in the most accessible company available.
Faye McManoman has ridden Rajawail more than anyone else, partnering the horse in 18 of its 28 races. The pair have yet to win together. Trainer Brian Rothwell, based at Oswaldkirk in North Yorkshire, has sent out just one winner from his yard this season, so it is a small operation without significant firepower behind it. Rajawail raced just yesterday, which at least shows the horse stays sound and keeps showing up — and in racing, that counts for something.
The honest truth is that there is no obvious angle here, no hidden potential waiting to reveal itself. Some horses take time to find their feet; others simply find their level. At six, with 28 races behind it and the form figures trending in the wrong direction, Rajawail looks like a horse that has found its level. For those who follow it anyway — and every horse has its supporters — the hope is always that one good day comes along and changes the story.
