Lanzhou
Five races in, and Lanzhou is still waiting for that first victory. The five-year-old has managed just one placed finish from its five outings so far, with a recent run of results reading 15th, 18th, 10th, 9th, and a non-completion — a sequence that tells a story of a horse that has consistently found itself towards the back of the field rather than challenging at the front of it.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
What makes that single placed finish stand out is precisely how rare it has been. With no wins and just one visit to the frame across five races, Lanzhou has not yet shown the kind of form that suggests a big day is just around the corner. For context, a horse finishing in the top three even occasionally would be cause for optimism — here, it has happened just once.
Lanzhou is trained by J P Flavin, operating out of Tramore in Co Waterford. The yard has been in decent touch this season, sending out 10 winners, which shows there is no shortage of ability on the training side. The question for Lanzhou is simply whether it can translate that stable's current form into a result of its own. Having raced as recently as yesterday, the yard are clearly keen to keep the horse busy — and sometimes, for a horse like this, a change of luck can come quickly when the moment is right.
