Kody B

At three years old, Kody B is still finding his feet in the sport, but there are enough encouraging signs in his record to suggest the best is yet to come. From six races, he has one win and two places — that's a podium finish in half of his outings, which is a decent return for a young horse still learning his trade.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

That win came at Pontefract on 20 October 2025, and it remains the defining moment of his career so far. At the level he typically competes at, he has won 1 from 3 races — roughly one in every three, which is a solid conversion rate at that grade and suggests he is competitive when conditions suit him. The worry is that his recent form reads 4-12-1-7, meaning after that Pontefract success he has been largely unable to replicate it, with a couple of disappointing efforts mixed in alongside flashes of promise.

He is trained by Craig Lidster, who operates out of Norton in North Yorkshire. The yard has sent out 20 winners this season, which tells you this is a stable that knows how to get horses winning — Kody B is in competent hands. The fact that he raced just one day ago also confirms he is fit and active, with his team clearly looking to build on whatever the latest run produced.

At this stage of his career, Kody B reads like a project in progress. The win at Pontefract showed he can get the job done, and a yard firing on all cylinders gives him a real chance to add to that tally before the season is out.
