Uhtred Ragnarson
Uhtred Ragnarson is a five-year-old who got off to a flying start last November, breaking through with a win at Warwick on his fourth career race. Since that opening success, however, he has struggled to recapture that form. In his last six races—the most recent just a day ago—he has finished in the top 3 twice (a second and a third) but has not won again, making it a full year without a victory. Across his career of 14 races, he has recorded 1 win and 8 top-3 finishes, which translates to a win rate of roughly 1 in 14 attempts.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis
Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
Philip Armson has been his main rider, handling him in eight races without finding the winner's circle. The horse competes at Class 4 level and has run five times at that standard without success. He is trained by Alan King at Wroughton in Wiltshire, a yard that has already sent out 57 winners this season, so the training setup is strong. The real question for Uhtred Ragnarson now is whether he can spark a revival and add to his solitary career win, or whether he has already shown his ceiling at this level.
