Robbo

The first win arrived at Chelmsford in April 2024, and then came a second at Goodwood in June 2025 — a year later, but notable for the venue. Goodwood is one of the most atmospheric tracks in Britain, and winning there means something. That win is now nearly ten months in the rear-view mirror, and Robbo has gone six races without adding to the tally since. Recent form reads 3-6-tenth-4-11, which tells you he is competitive enough to creep into the frame occasionally but not yet finding that extra gear when it counts.

The distance clue is worth paying attention to. At a mile and one to a mile and two furlongs, Robbo has won 1 from 5 races — a 20% win rate, or roughly 1 in every 5, which is meaningfully better than his record at other trips. Across the Class 4 races he typically enters, that overall figure drops to just 1 win from 16 starts, around 6%, or 1 in every 16. That gap suggests the right conditions — the right distance, the right day — do make a difference. The puzzle for Faulkner is finding that combination consistently.

Robbo raced just yesterday, so this is a horse in active work, showing no signs of being wound down. With Thomas Faulkner's yard already sending out 16 winners this season, the operation is clearly in good form. Whether Robbo can contribute a third win to that tally is the open question — but at a track and distance that suits, he has shown he can do it.
