Itaintmebabe
Itaintmebabe is a seven-year-old who finally broke through in late October when he won at Fakenham — a breakthrough that took nine races to arrive. Since that success nine months ago, nothing has come close to repeating it. His recent form reads as a string of disappointments: a seventh-place finish last time out, preceded by a fifth, a third, back-to-back sevenths, and a thirteenth. He has raced six times since his only win, finishing in the placings just once.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

🔍 Full Analysis
TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
The horse runs for Gordon Elliott's Longwood yard in County Meath, one of the bigger operations in Ireland — the trainer sent out 210 winners this season alone. Elliott pairs him regularly with jockey Jamie Gambin, and the partnership has produced one win from six races together, a win rate of roughly 1 in 3. Itaintmebabe performs best in Class 5 company, the lower grades where he has won one of four races (25%), suggesting he is a horse who needs an easy race to get competitive. At higher levels, his record would be thinner still. The gap between his peak — that October victory — and his current form is stark. He is still racing, still active, but the months since his win paint the picture of a horse struggling to find his way back to the winner's enclosure.
