Barry The Worm
At three years old, Barry The Worm is still finding his feet, but there are genuine signs that the penny is starting to drop. His overall record reads one win and two places from eight races — winning roughly 1 in every 8 — which is modest, but the recent form tells a more encouraging story. His last six results, reading from most recent, go 6-1-3-6-5-9, which means after a rough patch he has strung together a win and a third place back-to-back. That kind of upturn in form is exactly what you want to see from a young horse still learning the job.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
That win came at Wolverhampton on 22 November 2025, and it arrived at the level where Barry The Worm has done most of his racing — Class 6, which is the entry-level tier of British racing. At that level he has won 1 from 4, meaning he wins 1 in every 4 times he lines up there. For context, that is a solid return at that grade, and it suggests he is competitive when the race is pitched right for him.
He is trained by Edward Smyth-Osbourne, based at Upper Lambourn in Berkshire — one of the most famous training villages in the country, perched up on the Downs. The yard has sent out 8 winners this season, and with Barry The Worm having raced as recently as yesterday, he is clearly a horse they are keeping busy and believing in. At three, with his best form coming most recently, there is every reason to think the story is not finished yet.
