Volez Vous

Volez Vous is a seven-year-old with a modest record but a clear preference for one track. In 20 races across her career, she has won just twice and finished in the money three more times — a 10% win rate that puts her firmly in the journeyman category. Yet those two victories tell an interesting story: both came at Clonmel, where she has managed 2 wins from 5 runs. That is a win rate of 40% at that track, a pattern that sets her apart from her overall form and suggests something about the course or distances there suits her.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
TrackLab's detailed breakdown

Her recent form has been threadbare. In her last six races she has not found the winner's circle once, though she did scrape into the placings with a ninth and a tenth in that run. The gaps in her record suggest she has had time away from racing, possibly recovering from injury or simply waiting for the right opportunity. With her last race just a day ago, she is currently active again, though the fact that she ran and did not place — her finishing position was not recorded but clearly outside the money — suggests she is struggling to find her best form at the moment.

The partnership with trainer P J Rothwell at Tinahely, in County Wicklow, has produced both his wins, and Rothwell's yard has had a decent season with 35 winners overall, so there is some form in the stable. Benjamin P Kennedy, who rides him most often, has recorded 1 win from 6 races together — a 17% win rate aboard, better than Volez Vous's overall record, which hints that they work well as a pair. Her last victory came at her favourite track, Clonmel, on 27 March 2025, now 18 months in the past. At seven years old and without a win since spring, Volez Vous is approaching the point where consistency becomes the only story left to tell.
