He's A Latchico

Eight years old and still very much in the game, He's A Latchico has built a solid career across 29 races, picking up 8 wins and finishing in the frame 13 more times. That's a win rate of 28%, or just over 1 in every 4 races — a genuinely healthy record for a horse at this level, where consistency is harder to come by than it might look. His career has been ticking along since his first win at Lingfield Park in February 2022, and he's showing no signs of slowing down, having raced just yesterday.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

The most striking thing about He's A Latchico is what he does at Fontwell Park. Three wins from just 6 races there amounts to a 50% win rate at that course — which is the kind of number that makes trainers pencil a venue into the diary almost automatically. Fontwell is a quirky, figure-of-eight track in West Sussex that suits certain horses down to the ground, and He's A Latchico is clearly one of them. When he turns up there, you pay attention.

Ground conditions matter with this horse too. On normal, standard ground he has won 4 of his 9 races — nearly 1 in every 2 — and a separate stretch on similar conditions produced 2 wins from just 4 outings. That kind of consistency on a particular surface tells you the horse has a real preference, and getting conditions right is often half the battle with a horse like this. He also seems to find his best form over a mile and three to a mile and four furlongs, winning 2 of his 4 races at those distances.

He's A Latchico competes mostly at Class 4 level — the fourth tier of British racing, solid mid-level competition — and has won 2 of his 13 races there. That's a modest conversion rate at that grade, which tells you he earns his wins rather than being handed them. His most recent victory came at Leicester in late November 2025, and his recent form of 3-2-1 through the last few runs shows a horse who has been knocking on the door before getting his head in front.

Trained by Gary and Josh Moore at Lower Beeding in West Sussex — a yard that has fired out 99 winners this season alone — He's A Latchico is in good hands. With jockey Tom Queally in the saddle, the pair have won 2 of their 8 races together. An eight-year-old still racing this regularly and this competitively is a horse to respect.
