Pull The Rug
Pull The Rug broke through for a first career win at Leicester on 22 September 2025, but the 3-year-old has not tasted victory in the eleven months since. That single success stands out starkly against the horse's overall record of 1 win and 3 places from 12 races—a win rate of roughly 1 in every 12 outings. Recent form has been patchy: in the last six races, Pull The Rug has finished fourth, second, fourth, ninth, fourth, and seventh, most recently just a day ago. The runner-up finishes suggest there is still some ability here, but consistency has been elusive, and the long drought without a win will be frustrating for the yard.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

🔍 Full Analysis
TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
Grace Harris, who trains Pull The Rug at her yard near Shirenewton in Gwent, has had a strong season with 31 winners sent out so far. The yard clearly knows how to get horses across the line, which may offer some hope that Pull The Rug can rediscover the form that brought that breakthrough Leicester victory. At this stage, the horse needs to show it can build on that solitary win rather than remain a one-time scorer. The recent second place is a reminder that better things may still be possible, but without another victory soon, Pull The Rug risks settling into the role of a reliable place-horse rather than a genuine winner.
