Lemmy Caution
Lemmy Caution is a five-year-old with the look of a horse still finding his feet. Over eight races, he has won once and placed five times — a record that suggests genuine ability mixed with inconsistency. His only victory came at Punchestown on 13 May, three months ago, and since then he has been in and out of the placings. His last six runs tell the story: a fourth, a second, a third, a win, a sixth, and another third. That's two places and one win across his most recent outings, which shows he remains competitive but hasn't yet strung together the kind of form that marks out a horse moving steadily forward.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

🔍 Full Analysis
TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
Gordon Elliott's Longwood yard near Meath is sending out winners at a serious clip this season — 210 of them to date — and Elliott has watched Lemmy Caution develop from a point-to-point horse under previous care. The trainer has noted that the horse looked the part when he won his early race for Colin Bowe, and Elliott reckons he is showing enough at home to suggest something better may come. That sort of quiet confidence from a trainer of Elliott's standing is worth noting, even if Lemmy Caution has not yet proved it on track.
At five years old and with just one win from eight races, this is still a work in progress. He has the entries and the platform to improve, and he races actively — he was out just a day ago. Whether he becomes a genuine contender or remains a consistent place-getter will depend on whether the form he is showing at home translates into more wins on track.
