Lady Bouquet

She does her best work at the level where she belongs. In Class 6 races — the bread-and-butter tier of British racing, one step up from the very bottom — she has won 5 from 30, a 17% win rate that translates to roughly 1 in every 6 races at that grade. That consistency matters. It suggests she is well placed by Philip Kirby's yard in North Yorkshire, which has been in fine form this season with 36 winners sent out. Kirby knows the horse, and she seems to know her job.

Her happiest hunting ground is Wolverhampton. That is where her career began in earnest with a first win in October 2023, and it is where she returned to score most recently, winning there in December 2025. Wolverhampton is an all-weather track that races year-round under floodlights — a very specific kind of place — and horses that take to it often keep coming back. Lady Bouquet clearly has.

The current run of six races without a win will concern anyone following her closely. Her recent form reads 4-6-3-10-6-6, which means a third-place finish is the highlight of that stretch. Regular jockey Andrew Mullen has yet to find the winning formula aboard her, still searching for a first victory from their six races together. That said, she raced just yesterday, so she is very much in training and being kept busy — the yard clearly has not given up on her finding another opening, and with her record at Wolverhampton, it would be no surprise if that is where they go looking for it.
