Joshua Chamberlain

Joshua Chamberlain is a nine-year-old who has been racing long enough to know his way around a track, even if the wins have not come often. In 16 races, he has crossed the line first just once — at Tramore on 18 August 2023, nearly three years ago — and added four placings to compile a win rate of roughly 1 in every 17 races. It is the kind of record that speaks to a horse plugging along at a modest level, reliable enough to earn a placing now and then but not quite sharp enough to find the winner's circle again.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's Detailed Breakdown

His recent form has been mixed. Of his last six races, he has finished second, fourth, eleventh, fifth, and twice fifth again — the most recent outing just yesterday. That second-place finish shows he can still get close to winning, but the eleventh suggests he has had at least one poor day recently. Ricky Doyle, his most regular jockey, has ridden him eight times and won once together, a win rate slightly better than the horse's overall average but nothing to hang a hat on.

Gerard Keane's yard at Trim has been sending out winners this season, ten in total, which means Joshua Chamberlain is part of a stable doing its job competently. At nine years old and still active, he remains useful for the kind of race where he can find a place — the sort of outing that keeps a moderate horse in work and covers the cost of keeping him. One win in three years is a long drought, but a second place just yesterday proves he is still competitive on his day.
