Supreme Yeats

Supreme Yeats is a 10-year-old still doing what it does best at an age when many horses have long since retired. The horse has won six races from 32 starts, a win rate of roughly 1 in every 5, which is respectable for a competitor operating at this level. What makes the current form genuinely striking is that Supreme Yeats has won three of its last six races, including a success at Bangor-on-Dee just eight weeks ago. That recent victory suggests the horse remains sound and competitive, and the trainer and rider clearly see enough in it to keep racing.Based on TrackLab's analysis

TrackLab's detailed breakdown

The partnership between Supreme Yeats and its regular jockey Harry Skelton is the real story here. Skelton has ridden the horse ten times and won on four of those occasions—a 40 per cent win rate. That is the kind of working relationship that tends to happen when a jockey knows a horse inside out and when the pair trust each other. Skelton rides for trainer Dan Skelton, whose Alcester yard in Warwickshire has sent out 198 winners this season, so Supreme Yeats is part of a genuinely busy operation.

The horse has a clear preference for Newton Abbot, winning two of three races there. That sort of course specialist streak is valuable in racing—some horses simply suit certain tracks better than others, and Supreme Yeats has figured out how to handle Newton Abbot. Elsewhere, competing in the more competitive Class 4 races, the record is tougher: one win from thirteen starts. The most recent form shows a mix of solid efforts and one poor run, which is typical for a ten-year-old in the middle of a racing season. With Skelton in the saddle and the confidence of recent wins behind it, Supreme Yeats remains a horse worth following.
