James Choice
James Choice has yet to find the winner's circle in six career races, but the three-year-old is showing signs of progressive improvement under
Warren Greatrex at Upper Lambourn. The horse has picked up three places from those six attempts, with a recent run of form that suggests the trainer believes there is more to come. In its last six races, James Choice finished second twice, most recently just over a week ago, along with a pair of third-place finishes and two sixth-place runs. That sequence shows promise sandwiched between tougher days, which is typical of a young horse still learning its trade.

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
Greatrex's yard has been in strong form this season, recording 50 winners, and the trainer will be hoping James Choice slots into that winning column soon. The horse is still actively racing — it last ran just a day ago — so there will be opportunities coming up quickly. For a three-year-old without a victory yet, three placings in six attempts is respectable foundation work. The next few races will be crucial to see whether those second and third-place efforts represent genuine progress or simply the ceiling of what this horse can achieve at the level it is competing.
