Raaheeb

The first win came at Ascot in September 2025, which is not a bad place to announce yourself. Ascot is one of the most recognisable racecourses in the world, and winning there as a young horse on debut says something about a horse's quality. Raaheeb then backed it up with a win at Sandown Park just this week, meaning the record reads two races, two wins — as clean as it gets.

Owen Burrows trains Raaheeb from his yard in Lambourn, one of British racing's most storied training villages. Burrows has been in strong form this season, sending out 30 winners already, so Raaheeb is operating in a capable, confident set-up. A trainer running at that kind of volume in a season knows how to place a horse well and bring it to a race ready to run — which makes Raaheeb's unbeaten record feel all the more meaningful.

Two from two is a small sample, of course, and the real test will come when Raaheeb is asked to step up in class or face a deeper field. But as a snapshot of a young horse in the making, it is hard to argue with. Both wins, both tick in the right column — and with a run as recently as yesterday, this is a horse whose story is very much still being written.
