Four years into his training career, Tony Newcombe is yet to get off the mark this season — ten runners have gone to the track and none have come back with a winner. It's a tough run, and with the same blank scorecard over the past twelve months, it has been a testing stretch for the yard.Based on TrackLab's analysis

TrackLab's trainer breakdown
The one real bright spot in Newcombe's time as a trainer has been his partnership with Bug Boy. Together they have won 4 of their 23 races, which works out at roughly 1 win in every 6 outings — a meaningful return built up over a long working relationship. In a small operation, having one horse you can genuinely rely on to give you days to remember makes a real difference, and Bug Boy has clearly been the horse that keeps things moving forward.
Newcombe is still a relatively young trainer in career terms, having only started out in 2021. Four years in, the foundation is there — the question now is whether a change of fortune is just around the corner.
