Square d'Alboni

Square d'Alboni broke through at last just over three months ago, winning a Class 2 race at Worcester on 16 July, and has shown he belongs at that level. His record at the very top tier is a work in progress—one win from four attempts—but what matters is that he has proved capable of winning when stepped up to genuine quality races. He is a 4-year-old trained by Dan Skelton, whose Alcester yard has been firing out winners all season, and he has now won 4 of his 14 career races, a win rate of roughly one in every three attempts.Based on TrackLab's analysis

TrackLab's detailed breakdown

What makes Square d'Alboni genuinely interesting is the consistency of his form in recent weeks. He has won two of his last six races, with three places mixed in, and crucially he raced just yesterday—he is a horse in active work and clearly fit. Hector Crouch has become his regular jockey, partnering him twice from six rides and winning 33 per cent of the time in the saddle, which suggests they work well together. The combination of a top-class trainer, a jockey who rides him effectively, and genuine quality-race form adds up to a horse that could easily win again soon. At just 4 years old, there is every reason to think his best racing could still lie ahead.
