Call Glory

Four wins and sixteen places from fifty races — Call Glory is the kind of horse that keeps turning up and making life difficult for rivals without quite getting its nose in front. The five-year-old has been racing regularly enough that fifty career appearances is a significant body of work, and across all that experience it has won 4% of its races overall, or roughly 1 in every 12 or 13 outings. That is a modest return on paper, but the sixteen placed finishes tell a different story: this is a horse that competes honestly and rarely runs a bad race.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's Detailed Breakdown

The most recent win came at Southwell in January 2026, about four months ago, and Call Glory has not won in the six races since. That said, the recent form reads 5-3-2-4-3-6 — a string that includes a second and a third and shows a horse still in the mix rather than one that has fallen off a cliff. Raced just yesterday, this is very much an active campaign rather than a horse being nursed along.

Most of Call Glory's career has been spent at Class 6 level, which is the entry level of British flat racing — the kind of races where the competition is meant to be manageable. Even there, the record is 2 wins from 18 races, around 1 in every 9, which suggests the horse is competitive without dominating. The first win came at Goodwood in June 2023, which is a lovely place to break your duck — one of the most scenic and well-regarded tracks in the country.

Ryan Kavanagh has been the regular partner in the saddle, riding in 12 of Call Glory's races and winning 2 of them — that is roughly 1 in every 6 rides together, or 17%, which is noticeably better than Call Glory's overall win rate and hints at a good working relationship between horse and jockey. The trainer is Ian Williams, based in Portway, Worcestershire, and his yard has been in fine form this season, sending out 96 winners. Williams is an experienced handler who clearly knows how to keep a horse like this ticking over and finding opportunities, and Call Glory's consistent activity suggests the team is managing it well. Whether another win is just around the corner remains to be seen, but nothing in this horse's recent form suggests it is done competing.
