Stripe Of Honour

At 13 years old, Stripe Of Honour is the kind of racehorse that keeps turning up and keeps giving the yard — sorry, keeps giving the yard something to smile about. With 3 wins and 6 places from 25 races, this is not a horse that dominates, but one that competes honestly and picks its moments. Winning 3 from 25 works out at roughly 1 in every 8 races, which at Class 5 level — the bread-and-butter end of British racing — is a decent return for a horse that has clearly been kept in work deep into its teenage years. That alone tells you something: you don't keep running a 13-year-old unless it still wants to race.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
TrackLab's detailed breakdown

The spiritual home for Stripe Of Honour is Worcester, where it has won 2 of its 11 races there. Two wins from eleven might not sound dramatic, but finding a track where a horse consistently performs is genuinely useful — some horses simply go better at certain venues, whether it's the shape of the course, the ground, or something harder to explain. Worcester is where the first career win came on 14 July 2022, and the track clearly still suits.

The most recent win came at Southwell on 2 October 2025, which now sits 8 months in the past. Since then, the form reads 3-3-4-1 going backwards, which means Stripe Of Honour has been knocking on the door without quite getting through. A fifth-place finish is the worst of the last six runs — this is a horse running consistently, not one falling away. Raced just one day ago, it is still very much in active service.

One number worth noting: regular rider Harriet Tucker has partnered Stripe Of Honour nine times without a win between them. That's not necessarily a criticism of either — partnerships can take time to click, and plenty of factors go into any result — but nine races together without a winner is a run of luck that will have to turn eventually. Trainer Anthony Day's yard has sent out 2 winners this season, so the operation is ticking over rather than flying, which makes Stripe Of Honour's recent placed efforts all the more creditable. At 13, simply being in the mix is its own kind of achievement.
