Monsieur Patat
Monsieur Patat is a nine-year-old who has won 6 of his 34 races—a win rate of roughly 1 in every 5 attempts—and remains actively campaigned by trainer
Adrian Wintle's Gloucestershire yard. His most recent outing was just yesterday, where he finished fifth, continuing a frustrating run: he has not won in his last six races, though he did pick up two third-place finishes and a second in that stretch. What keeps him interesting is not recent form but his track record at specific venues, particularly Windsor, where he has an outsized record. At that Berkshire course alone, he has won 2 of his 5 races—a win rate of 40 percent—which is substantially better than his overall average. His last victory came there exactly a year ago, on 23 August 2025, suggesting Windsor holds something in his favour that other tracks do not.

🔍 Full Analysis
TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
Monsieur Patat races most often in Class 6 company, where he wins roughly 1 in every 4 races (4 wins from 16 attempts), and he shows a marked preference for normal ground conditions, winning 2 of 7 races on such surfaces—a 29 percent success rate compared to his overall 18 percent. When ridden by Finley Marsh, his most frequent partner, the combination is notably stronger: Marsh has steered him to 3 wins from 11 races together, a 27 percent rate that outpaces the horse's form in general. At nearly ten years old and without a win in half a year, Monsieur Patat is clearly past his prime, but his specialist record at Windsor and his improved performance with Marsh suggest there are still occasions when he can find the winner's enclosure—even if those days have become increasingly rare.
