Master Dandy
Master Dandy has become a reliable workhorse in the lower divisions, winning 4 of its 35 races overall but finding consistent success at Class 6 level, where it has notched up 3 wins from 16 attempts — a win rate of roughly 1 in 5 races. The six-year-old is trained by
Daisy Hitchins at her Sherborne yard in Dorset, a stable that has enjoyed a productive season with 14 winners to its name. Master Dandy's last victory came at Chelmsford on 29 January 2026, seven months ago, but the horse remains active and raced just a day ago, suggesting the yard has not given up on finding another winning opportunity.

🔍 Full Analysis
TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
Recent form tells a less encouraging story. In its last six races, Master Dandy has failed to win, with a best performance of fifth place, and across all 35 career races it has won fewer than once in every ten attempts. Interestingly, the horse has been saddled mostly by Darragh Keenan in recent outings, but that partnership has yet to click — Keenan has ridden Master Dandy five times without a win. The yard will be looking for a return to Class 6 company and conditions that favour the horse's proven strengths, as that is where Master Dandy has shown it can genuinely compete at a winning level. With seven months now since its last success, this is a horse that needs a change of luck sooner rather than later.
