Uncle Remus

Uncle Remus is a five-year-old who broke his duck back in July 2025 at Worcester, ending an eleven-race wait for his first win. That victory came at Class 5 level, and the fact that he has won 1 of his 4 races at that tier suggests he is genuinely competitive when the opposition is at the right level for him. Since that breakthrough, though, things have been tougher. He has not won again in thirteen months, though he has picked up a few placings along the way. His recent form reads 5-–-8-–-3-11, meaning his last race just yesterday saw him finish eleventh—hardly the sign of a horse hitting top form right now.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's Detailed Breakdown

Across his career Uncle Remus has managed just the one win from eleven races, which works out at roughly 1 win in every 11 attempts. He is ridden most often by Ciaran Gethings, and the pairing shows promise: they have won 1 of their 5 races together, a win rate of 1 in 5. The horse is trained by Henrietta C Knight out of West Lockinge in Oxfordshire, a yard that has already sent out 15 winners this season. For a horse like Uncle Remus—a lower-tier competitor still seeking consistency—being in a yard with that level of form is a positive sign, though he has yet to show he can string wins together himself. At five years old, he is still young enough to improve, but his lengthy absence from the winner's circle and his latest poor finish suggest he needs to rediscover the form that got him over the line at Worcester over a year ago.
