Silver Wraith

Of three visits to that tight, undulating track in Somerset, Silver Wraith has won two. That is a remarkable ratio — two wins from three races at a single course is the kind of record that makes trainers pick up the entries book with a smile. The first of those wins came on 9 October 2025, and the most recent on 29 April 2026, just two months ago. Something about Bath clearly suits this horse, whether it is the track's unusual camber, its tendency to favour handy-travelling types, or simply a surface that brings out the best in it. Whatever the reason, the numbers speak plainly.

Silver Wraith is trained by Emma Lavelle, whose yard at Ogbourne Maizey in Wiltshire has been in excellent form this season — 44 winners and counting. That kind of output from a trainer is not an accident; it reflects a well-organised operation that knows how to place its horses in races they can win. Silver Wraith's Bath record feels very much like evidence of that careful thinking.

At just four years old, Silver Wraith is still relatively early in its career, and the recent form makes for encouraging reading. The last six races, listed from most recent backwards, read 5-7-2-1-1-2 — two wins and two runner-up finishes in that sequence, with a pair of quieter efforts mixed in. That is the profile of a horse coming into form rather than fading from it, which matters a great deal when you note that it raced just one day ago and is clearly being kept busy. Most of its racing has come at Class 5 level, where it has won 1 from 5 (20% — roughly 1 in every 5), but the bigger picture is straightforward: point Silver Wraith towards Bath, and the chances of something good happening go up considerably.
