The most striking number in Dutch Kingdom's profile is what happens when he teams up with jockey Liam Wright. Together they have won 5 of their 9 races — that is a win rate of 56%, better than one in every two. In a sport where even the best horse-and-jockey combinations rarely win more than a quarter of their races, that figure is remarkable. It suggests the two simply click, and any time Wright's name appears next to Dutch Kingdom on a racecard, it is worth paying attention.
Ground conditions matter enormously in racing, and Dutch Kingdom has a clear preference for normal, dry ground. On those surfaces he has won 6 of his 15 races — 40% — which puts him in a different class to his record on other ground. Factor that in before backing him.
He also has a course record at Chelmsford worth noting: 2 wins from just 4 visits, a hit rate of 50%. That kind of affinity for a particular track tends to be real rather than coincidental — something about the shape of the circuit or the nature of the ground there seems to suit him.
The honest caveat is that his recent form is patchy. His last six runs read 8th, 12th, 14th, 12th, 10th, and 1st — so that sole win apart, he has been struggling to land a blow. His last victory came at Southwell in March 2025, over a year ago. Jim Boyle's yard has sent out 25 winners this season, so the operation is clearly in good shape — Dutch Kingdom just needs things to fall right again. With the right ground, Liam Wright in the saddle, and a Chelmsford entry, he remains a horse that can surprise people.
