Yafaarr
Yafaarr is a horse that thrives on routine and repetition. The 4-year-old has won 4 of its 24 races — a win rate of roughly 1 in every 6 outings — and there is a clear pattern to where those victories come. Three of those wins have come at Redcar, the Yorkshire coastal track where Yafaarr races like a different horse. At Redcar, the record reads 3 wins from 7 races, a win rate of nearly 1 in 2. Most recently, two weeks ago, Yafaarr won there on 3 October, and that victory sits at the heart of some genuinely encouraging form. In the last six races, the horse has won twice, finished second once, and finished in the top 3 three times. That is the kind of consistency that suggests Yafaarr is finding its level.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis
Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
The horse has a marked preference for normal, standard ground conditions — it wins roughly 1 in every 3 races when the track is neither too wet nor too firm. It also shows a preference for distances between 1 mile 3 furlongs and 1 mile 4 furlongs, though the sample size there is small. Sam England's Guiseley yard, which has sent out 49 winners this season, trains Yafaarr, and the fact that the horse raced just a day ago suggests it is sound and active in the yard's plans. Yafaarr broke through for its first win at Newcastle in late October 2025, and has been competing steadily ever since. At Class 6 level, the horse has one win from seven attempts, which tells you Yafaarr is better suited to races where the opposition is a touch less demanding. The form is modest but genuine, and the Redcar speciality is real enough to keep an eye on next time the horse heads to the coast.
