Get It

The horse thrives in specific conditions. On fast, dry ground, he is genuinely special, winning five of ten races — a fifty percent win rate — which suggests his speed translates best when the surface is firm beneath his hooves. He is also a course specialist at Windsor, with two wins from four races there, a record that hints at an affinity for that particular track. Recently, though, his form has softened. In his last six races he has won just twice, with a seventeenth place among them, suggesting he may need a run or two to find his rhythm again.

Pat Cosgrave has been his most frequent partner, and their partnership has been notably productive: four wins from eleven races together, a thirty-six percent win rate that exceeds his overall career figures. That kind of consistency between horse and jockey matters. Get It is trained by George Baker at Epsom Downs, whose yard has been in winning form this season with fourteen winners so far. Baker was frank about the horse in earlier years, noting his natural speed but also acknowledging he could be difficult to manage — hence a gelding operation that appears to have paid dividends. What emerged was a horse capable of competing at the highest levels, one that has shown he can win when it counts, particularly on the ground he loves and at the tracks that suit him.
