Sure Touch
Sure Touch is a 10-year-old with real class and a knack for finding the winner's circle. Over 27 races, the horse has won nine times and finished in the money sixteen times more — a win rate of roughly one win in every three races, which puts it comfortably in the category of reliable, consistent performers. What's particularly striking is its record at Market Rasen, where it has won three of five races. That's a 60% win rate at a single track, the kind of specialist form that makes bookmakers wary and punters take notice. The most recent victory came in a Class 1 race in July 2024, proof that Sure Touch has the quality to mix it at the very top of the sport.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

🔍 Full Analysis
TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
Trainer Olly Murphy's yard at Wilmcote has been in tremendous form this season, and Sure Touch remains an active part of those plans. The horse raced just a day ago and has been particularly dominant in Class 4 company, winning five of nine races at that level — a 56% win rate that shows real authority. Sean Bowen, who has ridden Sure Touch regularly, has managed three wins from nine rides together, matching the horse's overall win rate and suggesting they work well as a partnership. The recent form reads 4-3-1-5-10-7 over the last six races, a mixed picture that includes a win just ten days ago but also some spottier efforts alongside it. At ten years old, Sure Touch is in the veteran stage of its racing life, but the consistency of winning roughly one in three races and the proven ability to win at the highest level suggests there is still useful racing to be done.
