Roaring Home

Roaring Home is a seven-year-old that has finally found its stride after spending years on the fringes of the winners' circle. With three wins from 21 races, it wins roughly once every seven outings—modest figures on paper, but the horse's recent form tells a different story. In its last six races, it has finished in the top 3 five times, including two wins in that stretch, which suggests something has clicked for this veteran campaigner and its trainer Henry Daly's Ludlow yard.Based on TrackLab's analysis

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

The horse came to life relatively late, landing its first career victory at Exeter in October 2024, then waited six months before breaking through again at Aintree in May—a significant win that proved the first success was no fluke. What makes Roaring Home genuinely interesting is its partnership with jockey Sam Twiston-Davies: the pair have a 29% win rate together, winning 2 of their 7 races as a team. That's a striking difference from the horse's overall record, and suggests Twiston-Davies has found a way to get the best from it.

Ground conditions matter enormously here. On normal, standard going, Roaring Home wins roughly one in every four or five races (3 wins from 13), which is nearly double its overall win rate. This is the sort of detail that can make all the difference in placing a horse in the right race at the right time. Racing in Class 4 company, where the competition sits a step below the elite, Roaring Home has won one from six starts. Last raced just a day ago, it remains active and competitive, and with two wins in its last six outings and a jockey who clearly knows how to ride it, Roaring Home has genuine momentum heading into its next outing.
