Supreme George

The most striking thing is what happens when the ground softens up. On wet, muddy ground, Supreme George has won 2 of his 4 races — a 50% win rate that is genuinely exceptional. That is not a fluke; that is a horse who comes alive in conditions that make others miserable. Pair that with his preferred distance — somewhere between a mile and six furlongs and two miles — and he has won 3 of his 5 races in that range, a 60% conversion rate that tells you his trainer Donald McCain knows exactly how to place him. McCain's yard at Cholmondeley has sent out 55 winners this season alone, which speaks to an operation that understands its horses well.

His record at Catterick Bridge is the kind of thing that makes seasoned racegoers sit up: 2 wins from just 3 races there. A horse who wins at that rate at a specific track has usually found a course that suits everything about how he runs — the shape of the bends, the way the ground lies, the distance. If his name appears in a Catterick entry on a wet day, that is not a race to ignore.

What makes his recent form so compelling is the momentum behind it. After his first career win at Ludlow back in December 2025, Supreme George has found another gear entirely. His last six runs read 5-1-2-3-1-1 — three wins in that sequence, with his most recent victory at Chepstow just seven weeks ago. He raced again only yesterday, which tells you he is fit, busy, and in the hands of a team confident enough to keep him active. The one puzzle piece that does not quite fit is his regular partnership with jockey Brian Hughes — zero wins from eight races together. Given how well this horse is running right now, that is a statistic someone at the yard will eventually have a conversation about.
