Got A Dream

That recent sequence of results tells a clear story. Strip away two disappointing sixth-place finishes on either side and you find a horse that has won three times in the space of its last six races — a level of consistency that most horses in this bracket never come close to matching. The career started at Huntingdon in March 2024, and Got A Dream has been gradually building toward this kind of form ever since.

The level at which this horse operates is worth understanding. Class 4 is solidly mid-tier racing — not the big televised occasions, but competitive enough that you cannot simply turn up and win. Got A Dream has managed 2 wins from 4 races at that level, meaning it wins half the time when the conditions suit. That is a remarkable hit rate by any measure, and it suggests a horse that is well placed by trainer Nicky Martin to go where it can do damage.

Martin trains out of Withypool in Somerset and has sent out 9 winners already this season — a yard clearly punching with confidence. Getting a horse ready to win at Exeter this week, with another race just 24 hours ago, is the kind of sharp, assured management that makes the difference at this level. The team clearly knows exactly what Got A Dream needs and when.

At seven years old, this is not a young prospect still learning the ropes — it is a horse in the prime of its racing life, fit, in form, and winning at the kind of frequency that makes it genuinely exciting to follow. Three wins from the last six races is not a fluke. It is a horse that has found its rhythm, and right now, Got A Dream is very much living up to its name.
