Tees George
Tees George is a workhorse rather than a thoroughbred extraordinaire, but at six years old this horse has found his level and is proving dependable at it. With three wins from 34 races—a win rate of roughly 1 in 11—he is precisely the sort of consistent performer that pays his way, and his recent form suggests he could be heading back to the winner's circle sooner than later. His trainer,
Adrian Nicholls, describes him as a lovely, big horse who has run well all year and rarely puts in a bad effort, even when he doesn't win. The main challenge has been keeping condition on such a lightly-framed animal, but Nicholls was confident after his last two runs that another victory was coming soon.

🔍 Full Analysis
TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
The clearest pattern in Tees George's record is his dominance at Beverley, where he has won 2 of his 6 races there—a win rate of better than 1 in 3. This is where he last won, back in April, and it is a track that clearly suits him. He also performs best at trips between 1m1f and 1m2f, winning 2 races from 15 attempts (13%) over that distance. In the lower classes—where most of his racing happens—he wins roughly 1 in 9 races. The frustration of recent months is that he hasn't found the winner in his last six outings: he's been placed four times and finished fourth twice, suggesting the form is there but fortune has not been. Harrison Shaw, his most frequent partner in the saddle, has had six rides on him without a win, so there may be scope for a change of jockey to spark a return to victory. Raced just yesterday and still competing actively, Tees George remains a horse worth following at his preferred courses and distances.
