State Of Gold
State Of Gold is a two-year-old still finding its way, but it has already tasted success at a track that seems to suit it perfectly. The horse won at Beverley on 13 August, a breakthrough victory that came in its fifth race, and that same track has now become its happy hunting ground — it raced there again just yesterday, finishing second in what looks like a strong recent run. Across five races, the horse has won once and placed twice, giving it a win rate of one in five, which is respectable for a young horse still learning the game.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
What makes State Of Gold interesting right now is the momentum. After that win at Beverley a few days ago, the yard sent it straight back to the same course, suggesting they believe the horse has found a place where it runs well. The second-place finish yesterday shows it is competing hard at a track that has proven to be its strongest ground. Earlier in those last five races there were tougher days — an eighth place and a seventh — but the recent form has tightened up noticeably. Craig Lidster's Norton yard in North Yorkshire is having a solid season with 20 winners so far, and State Of Gold looks like it could be part of that success story if it can keep building on what it has found at Beverley.
