Smart Vision

The most interesting fact about Smart Vision is its partnership with jockey Lewis Edmunds. When they team up, the win rate jumps dramatically to 21 percent—4 wins from 19 races together. That is a genuine connection, and it suggests Edmunds has found something in how to ride this horse that other jockeys haven't quite unlocked. It is the kind of detail that matters in real racing: the best horse-and-rider combinations often outperform the sum of their parts.

Smart Vision's form is patchy right now. It won a Class 2 race at Doncaster on 25 October 2025—a significant step up in class that showed there is still something there—but it has not won since, and the last six races tell a frustrating story: 7th, 8th, 4th, 4th, 4th, 9th. Close finishes followed by a blunt defeat, the kind of pattern that suggests the horse is running out of steam or finding the races tougher. There are hints of preference worth noting: it wins at roughly double its overall rate on fast, dry ground, and it performs best at distances between 7 furlongs and a mile. On those particular days and tracks, Smart Vision can show what it is capable of. For now, though, it is a horse in search of another winning day, with Edmunds in the saddle the best chance of finding one.
