Addarella

The partnership with jockey Marco Ghiani is worth paying attention to too. In 5 races together, they have won 2 — that's a 40% win rate, or roughly 2 in every 5 rides ending in victory. For context, most jockey-horse combinations in this tier would be delighted with 1 win in 5. When Ghiani is booked for Addarella, especially at Wolverhampton, the team clearly means business.

The recent form tells an interesting story. Reading the last six runs from most recent to oldest — 5th, 4th, 7th, 8th, 2nd, 1st — you can see a horse that won in January, then ran into a rough patch over the following months. A 2nd place sandwiched between a string of mid-pack finishes suggests the talent is still there but hasn't quite clicked since the last win. That win came at Wolverhampton on 19 January 2026, three months ago, and the track record means the yard will almost certainly be looking back there when the time is right.

Trainer Scott Dixon, based at Rolleston in Nottinghamshire, has sent out 35 winners this season — a productive yard by any measure. Addarella mostly races at Class 5, which is the entry-level tier of British racing, and has won 1 from 11 races at that level — roughly 1 in every 11. That's a modest ratio, but the Wolverhampton form lifts the story considerably. Put this horse on the right track with the right jockey, and the picture looks much more compelling than the overall record suggests. That's the kind of detail that separates a horse worth watching from one you'd scroll past.
