Religous Cross

Religious Cross has made a quiet but solid start to its racing career, picking up 1 win and 2 places from just 4 races — a 25% win rate, or one win in every four attempts, which is a perfectly respectable return for a horse still finding its feet at this level. At six years old, there is plenty of racing ahead, and the early signs suggest a horse that turns up and competes rather than one that makes up the numbers.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
TrackLab's detailed breakdown

The sole win came at Taunton on 30 December 2025, and recent form reading 9-4-1-2 tells an interesting story. Work back from that and you can see a horse that has been knocking on the door — a second, a win, a fourth — before a disappointing ninth last time out. That latest result is worth keeping an eye on, but one rough run does not define a career, and the fact that it raced just yesterday shows the team is keeping the horse busy and active.

The trainer behind the operation is Neil Mulholland, based at Limpley Stoke in Wiltshire. Sixty winners in a season is a serious number — it puts Mulholland firmly in the productive, reliable bracket of British trainers, the kind of yard where horses tend to be placed in races they can win rather than just making up the field. For a horse like Religious Cross, being in those hands matters.
