Silver Wraith

Both wins have come at Bath. The first arrived on 9 October 2025, and the second came more recently on 29 April 2026, four months ago now. Since that last win, Silver Wraith has not found the frame again across six races, managing only a fourth, eleventh, and two seventh places, along with a couple of seconds that show it is at least competitive but not winning. The form reads like a horse treading water, though its recent run a day ago suggests the stable still has confidence enough to keep running it.

Emma Lavelle's yard at Ogbourne Maizey is in rude health this season with 44 winners to its name, so the horse is in a functioning operation. When Silver Wraith does get a run in Class 5 races — the lower tiers of competition — it wins roughly 1 in every 5 of those (1 win from 5 attempts). That's respectable form at that level. The puzzle is why it has stopped winning altogether since spring. Whether a return to Bath might spark something is an open question, but the horse's form there suggests it deserves at least one more chance at the place where it has done its best work.
