Ravishing Beauty

On normal conditions, Ravishing Beauty has won 2 of just 7 races — that is nearly 1 in 3, a dramatically better record than its overall career suggests. Pair that with its preferred distance range of 1m1f to 1m2f, where it has won 2 from 10 (1 in 5), and you can see that the horse is not without ability — it just needs the right ingredients. The two wins came at Pontefract in July 2025 and then Nottingham in August 2025, suggesting it came into a productive patch over the summer before form dipped away again.

The partnership with jockey Jack Garritty is genuinely worth noting. In 11 races together they have won twice — an 18% win rate, or roughly 1 in every 6 rides. For a horse whose overall win rate is 1 in 10, that is a meaningful uplift, and it hints that Garritty understands what this horse needs and how to get it running. Trainer Jedd O'Keeffe, based at Coverham in North Yorkshire, has sent out 18 winners so far this season, so there is clearly a yard in decent form behind the horse.

The last six races — finishing 7th, 8th, 3rd, 7th, 2nd, and 2nd from most recent backwards — tell a story of a horse that has gone slightly cold since that Nottingham win nine months ago, though a couple of placed efforts along the way suggest it has not completely lost the thread. Racing just one day ago, Ravishing Beauty is very much in active competition at Class 5 level, where it wins about 1 in 10, and the yard will be hoping that the combination of the right ground and Garritty in the saddle can unlock another win before long.
