Rex Regum
Rex Regum is a two-year-old still finding his way, but he has already shown enough to suggest there is something there to work with. The horse broke his duck at Pontefract just days ago, winning on ground conditions that clearly suited him. That first victory came after five races without a win, so patience has been rewarded — though the recent form suggests consistency remains a work in progress. In his last six outings he has finished first, seventh, second, third, eighth, and ninth, which tells you he is capable of better days and worse ones in equal measure.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
What matters now is whether trainer Tom Clover can build on that Pontefract success. Clover's Newmarket yard has been firing this season with 23 winners already, so there is clearly expertise in getting young horses ready. Rex Regum has earned three places alongside his single win from six races overall, which is respectable enough at this stage of a two-year-old's career — winning roughly once in every six races is not spectacular, but it is not nothing either. The key will be finding the right race and the right conditions again. Some horses need a confidence-builder before they settle in, and that Pontefract win could be the starting point. He is active and racing regularly, so the yard are clearly keen to keep him progressing.
