Twirler

Michael Attwater's Epsom yard has found him useful at Class 5 level, where Twirler has won 2 of his 13 races at that grade. His last victory came at Windsor on 7 May, four months ago now, and he was back in action just yesterday—a sign that Attwater keeps him fresh and regularly targeted. Paddy Bradley, his most frequent partner, has a notably better record aboard him than the horse's overall figures suggest: 2 wins from 8 races together, a 25 percent win rate that hints Twirler runs well for the jockey. That kind of partnership is worth watching for if you're trying to pick her next win.

Her recent form shows what you'd expect from a horse of her level: a win 6 runs ago, two seconds, and some midfield finishes mixed in. Nothing fancy, but nothing dire either. She broke her maiden at Newcastle in February 2024, nearly two and a half years ago, and has ticked along steadily ever since. Twirler will never be a horse to bet the house on, but he's the type that Attwater's yard will keep running because he pays his way and pops up with the occasional surprise. At five years old, she's settled into her mark and will continue to be a fixture in moderate company—reliable, if not riveting.
