Marajito

That victory came at Redcar on 20 June 2025, and it remains the high-water mark of Marajito's career so far. Redcar is a flat, fair track on the North Yorkshire coast, the kind of place where a horse with straightforward ability can get a clear run and show what it's capable of. Whether Marajito can return there and repeat the trick is one of the more interesting questions hanging over its near future.

The horse is trained by Tim Easterby at Great Habton in North Yorkshire, and it's worth pausing on that detail. Easterby's yard has sent out 126 winners this season alone — that is a seriously productive operation, the kind of stable that knows how to place its horses and find the right opportunities. Being part of that setup gives Marajito every chance of being pointed at a race it can win. Jockey David Allan takes the ride more often than anyone else, and together they've won 1 from 6 — roughly 1 in every 6 races — which actually nudges ahead of Marajito's overall average and suggests the partnership has something going for it.

The recent form figures — 5, 5, 8, 12, 14, 5 in its last six outings, reading from most recent back — are a mixed picture. The two fifth-place finishes at either end of that sequence show Marajito knocking on the door without quite getting through it, while the 12th and 14th suggest there have been days when things simply haven't clicked. It hasn't won in its last six races, and that June 2025 win is now eleven months old. At Class 5 level — the entry-level tier of British racing — it has won 1 from 7 races at that grade, or 14%, which is where it does its best work. The horse raced just yesterday, so the yard are clearly keeping it busy and looking for the right opportunity to strike again.
