Scorpio Rising
Scorpio Rising has spent the last eight months chasing a winner that will not come. The six-year-old last tasted victory at Sandown Park in early March 2026, a Class 1 race that stands as the high point of its career — the kind of big-occasion win that ought to signal a horse moving upwards. Since then, across six races, Scorpio Rising has finished in the top 3 five times but has not crossed the line first. For a horse with a 44 per cent win rate overall, that drought feels heavy.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis
Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
What makes this worth watching is what came before. In the previous six races before the current streak, Scorpio Rising won four of them — a remarkable run that included that Sandown Class 1 victory. Trainer Olly Murphy's yard at Wilmcote has produced 146 winners this season, and Scorpio Rising has been one of the success stories, ridden almost exclusively by Sean Bowen. The pair have an excellent record together: four wins from seven races, a 57 per cent win rate that speaks to genuine compatibility. With the horse only recently active — it raced just a day ago — there is still time for that winning touch to return. Whether Bowen can find it again, or whether Sandown was the peak, remains to be seen.
