Shadow King
Shadow King is a two-year-old who has hit the ground running, winning one of his two races so far and finishing placed in the other — a record that gives him a 50% win rate, or to put it plainly, he has won half of everything he has entered. For a horse so early in his career, that kind of consistency is a genuinely encouraging sign.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
His only win came at Kempton Park just this week, on 4th May 2026, and the fact he raced just a day ago tells you this is a yard in no mood to let him sit idle. That first career victory is the foundation everything else gets built on, and Shadow King already has his name on the board.
He is trained by Richard Hannon at Herridge in Wiltshire, and the scale of that operation is worth pausing on. Hannon's yard has sent out 118 winners already this season — that is not a trainer who gets lucky occasionally, that is a production line of racehorses being prepared with real precision. Landing a first win at Kempton with a two-year-old fits the pattern of a team that knows exactly what it is doing with young horses. Shadow King is one small piece of a very large, very successful puzzle — but he is a piece that has already delivered.
