Mix Of Clover

Mix Of Clover is a 12-year-old who has found his sweet spot at two miles. The horse has won four races from 27 outings—a win rate of roughly 1 in every 6 races—but the real story lies in where he wins. At Class 4 level, his natural home, he has won three of his last 18 races, a 17 per cent win rate that shows he is genuinely competitive at that grade. His last victory came at Worcester just six weeks ago, and he remains active, having raced as recently as yesterday.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

The horse spent much of last summer winning, and trainer Alastair Ralph describes him as "a summer jumper" who needed the winter off. That pattern shows in his recent form: two wins from his last six races, including a convincing success at Stratford where jockey Tom Broughton noted that Mix Of Clover is "a fast horse" and that dropping back to two miles from longer trips has brought out his best. The Worcester yard, based at Bridgnorth in Shropshire, is sending out winners regularly—25 this season—and Ralph clearly has plans to bring Mix Of Clover back to the track around May.

What is interesting about Mix Of Clover is consistency over distance and simplicity of approach. Broughton's post-race comments reveal that the horse had run free over further and failed to get home, so Ralph made the obvious call to shorten him back to what suits him. That kind of small tactical adjustment often makes the difference between winning and running second, and it has worked. At 12 years old, Mix Of Clover is a veteran, but there is no sign he is done yet.
