Vingegaard

Vingegaard has been around the block enough times to know what it takes — 12 races, a handful of places, and one genuine moment in the sun — but that winning feeling has proven elusive lately. The four-year-old carries a career win rate of just 8%, or one win from every twelve outings, and hasn't crossed the line first in any of its last six races. The most recent form figures of 6-3-12-9-10-5 tell a mixed story: there's been the odd decent effort tucked in there, but also some disappointing days when the horse simply hasn't fired.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

That one career win came at Chepstow in May 2024, which is now over two years ago — a long time in any sport. It's worth noting that Vingegaard has been punching at a high level, competing in four top-tier races, and coming away without a win from any of them. That's not unusual — these are the toughest races in Britain — but it does mean the horse has repeatedly tested itself against the best and found them a step too sharp.

Hollie Doyle, one of the most recognisable jockeys in British racing, has taken the ride five times and the partnership has clicked once — a 20% win rate together, or 1 from 5, which is actually a reasonable return and noticeably better than the horse's overall record. That suggests the combination works, and it's likely no coincidence that the pair's best results have come together.

Behind the scenes, Vingegaard is trained by Julie Camacho out of her yard in Norton, North Yorkshire. Camacho is having a productive season — 46 winners sent out so far — and is clearly a trainer in good form. A horse in her care that hasn't won in over two years is probably being aimed carefully rather than run out of habit, and the fact that Vingegaard raced just yesterday suggests the team still believes there's a performance in there worth waiting for. Whether Chepstow in the spring of 2024 was a one-off or a sign of what this horse can do on its day is the question that keeps the yard — and anyone watching — interested.
