His most recent outing came just yesterday, when he ran sixth. Before that, his form reads 6-6-2-1-3, suggesting a horse that's been mixing decent efforts with some quieter days. The real highlight came four weeks ago at York, where he found his way into the winner's circle — his most recent victory, and proof that he's still capable of winning races. Earlier in the summer, on 7 July 2024, he broke his duck at Ayr, showing that he knew what he was doing once he got his head in front.
What makes Stratusnine worth watching is his record at the highest level where he competes. At Class 3 races — proper, competitive events — he wins one in every four starts (1 win from 4 races, 25%). That's double his overall win rate and suggests he's at his best against this grade of opposition. Trained by Hugo Palmer at Malpas in Cheshire, a yard that has already sent out 67 winners this season, Stratusnine fits into a setup built on consistency. He's an active horse, still racing regularly, still improving opportunities, and still showing enough to suggest there could be more wins to come.
