On The Inlet
On The Inlet is a 3-year-old finding its feet, with two wins from nine races and a clear preference for the kind of racing conditions and track lengths that suit its style. The horse won its first race at Southwell on 2 April 2026, then struck again at Wolverhampton just a week later—but has not tasted victory in the four months since, a dry spell that has tested its consistency. Still, recent form suggests a comeback might be brewing: it has won two of its last six races, including that victory at Wolverhampton, and placed three times in those same six outings. That 22% win rate overall—roughly 1 winner in every five attempts—is respectable for a young horse still learning its trade.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
The real clue to what On The Inlet needs to thrive lies in the ground and the distance. On normal, standard conditions, the horse has won 2 of its 4 races—a 50% win rate that stands out starkly against its overall record. It also performs noticeably better at the middle distances of 1 mile 1 furlong to 1 mile 2 furlongs, winning 1 of 3 races over that range. This tells us On The Inlet is not a horse struggling with ability so much as one that has found a comfort zone—and when the right conditions and track length align, it shows what it can do. Trained by Dr Richard Newland and Jamie Insole at their Elmbridge yard in Worcestershire, which has already sent out 49 winners this season, On The Inlet has the support of an ambitious, in-form stable. With the horse currently active and racing just a day ago, a return to conditions and distances that suit it could unlock another winning run.
