Stopherandgo
Stopherandgo is a 9-year-old horse that has been racing for over three and a half years without finding the winner's circle again. The horse won once, at Wincanton back in March 2023, but that single victory now feels like a distant memory across 42 months and 20 subsequent races. With just one win and three places from 21 starts, Stopherandgo wins roughly once in every 20 races—a win rate that places it firmly in the category of a genuine plodder rather than a serious contender.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

🔍 Full Analysis
TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
The horse shows a slight preference for longer distances between a mile and six furlongs and two miles, where it has won once from five races (a 20% win rate at those trip lengths), suggesting there may be an ideal ground or field configuration waiting somewhere. However, recent form offers little encouragement: its last six runs have produced two fourth-place finishes and four unplaced efforts. Bryan Carver, its most frequent jockey with six rides, has yet to land a winner aboard the horse. At Class 5 level—the lower rungs of competitive racing—Stopherandgo remains winless from ten attempts, which hints that it may have drifted down the handicap ladder as its racing career has matured without meaningful success.
Trained by David Flood at Stow-On-The-Wold in Gloucestershire, Stopherandgo continues to race actively, having run just a day ago. The yard itself has been modest this season with only two winners sent out. For a horse now in its ninth year, still plugging away at the bottom end of the sport, finding that second win would represent genuine redemption—though the pattern of form and the passage of time suggest it may never return to the winner's enclosure.
