One Island
There is plenty of promise wrapped up in One Island, even if the four-race record — no wins and two places — does not yet tell the full story. The key piece of context is this: before arriving in Britain, this four-year-old won his only race on the Flat in France, a middle-distance race on normal ground in the provinces. That is not a flashy résumé, but it tells you the horse knows how to win, and that matters.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
He is now in the care of Paul Nicholls at Ditcheat in Somerset, which is about as good an address as a young horse in jumping can have. Nicholls' yard has sent out 92 winners already this season — that is the kind of operation where horses tend to improve quickly, and where a promising young horse gets every chance to fulfil his potential. Nicholls himself has spoken warmly about One Island, saying he has been pleased with everything the horse has shown in training and that he has taken to his new life well.
The recent form reads 6-3-2-5 going back in time, with the most encouraging sign being that second place — a clear step forward. He has not yet broken through for a win over hurdles, but he has been placed twice in four races, which suggests he is competitive and learning his trade. He raced just yesterday, so he is very much a horse in the thick of his season right now. With Nicholls in his corner and the evidence of that French win showing he can cross the line first when conditions are right, One Island looks like a horse worth keeping an eye on as the season develops.
