Newcastle holds the key to understanding this horse. He has won twice at the track from five visits, a success rate of 40 per cent, which is genuinely impressive for any horse at any track. It suggests he knows the place well and handles it to his favour. His most recent victory came at Catterick Bridge three months ago in May, and his form in the last six races shows real inconsistency — he has been placed in four of them but also failed to score in two — so he is a horse who can run well without always winning.
He thrives on normal ground conditions, winning two of his five races on standard tracks (40 per cent), which is a useful guide for his the yard when race planning. In the lower-class races where he typically runs — Class 6 events — he has a 50 per cent win rate from four attempts, showing he can mix it with horses at his level when everything aligns. His regular jockey, Jason Hart, has ridden him six times with one win between them, which is a modest partnership so far. The horse is trained by John and Sean Quinn at Norton in North Yorkshire, a yard that has sent out forty-four winners already this season, so he is in an active, winning stable. With his last race just a day ago, he remains an active runner, and if he can rediscover the form that brought that Catterick win, he could be ready to strike again soon.
