Julie Camacho

The numbers tell a story of steady, serious progress. Since starting out in 2021, Camacho has trained 174 career winners — a remarkable volume for someone still in the early stages of building a training operation. Over the past twelve months alone, she has sent out 49 winners from 437 runners, meaning she wins roughly 1 in every 9 races she enters. That is a healthy rate for any yard, but especially one taking on entries at the very top of the sport.

One track where her runners are worth a closer look is Beverley, a tight, undulating circuit in East Yorkshire that suits certain horses perfectly. She has sent out 6 winners from just 17 runners there — that means she wins more than 1 in every 3 races at that track, which is an extraordinary ratio. When a trainer keeps returning to a venue and keeps winning, it usually means they understand the track well and pick their spots wisely.

Her most trusted jockey over this period has been Ryan Sexton, who has partnered her horses to 18 wins from 154 rides together — wins at a rate of 12%, or roughly 1 in every 8 times they team up. That kind of consistent partnership matters in racing: a jockey who knows a trainer's horses, their running style, and their quirks can make a real difference in a tight finish. One horse that stands out within that operation is Hundred Caps, who has won 3 of his 15 races alongside Camacho — a horse clearly well placed and given every chance to succeed.

What makes Camacho interesting is the combination of volume and ambition. Some trainers run plenty of horses at a modest level; others aim high with small strings. She appears to be doing both at once, and winning at Ascot and Goodwood while still in her fourth year of training is a genuine statement of intent.
