Vitalline

The horse competes mostly at Class 6 level — the entry-level tier of British racing — and that is where Vitalline does best, winning 4 of 31 races at that grade. That works out to roughly 1 in every 8, which is a genuinely solid record for that company. There is also something interesting about how Vitalline performs in wet or muddy conditions: 2 wins from 14 races on that type of ground, meaning it wins about 1 in 7 times when the ground is soft. For a horse that often races on all-weather tracks — where the surface stays consistent — those numbers suggest Vitalline genuinely thrives when conditions get testing.

The partnership with jockey Josephine Gordon is arguably the most striking part of this profile. In 25 races together, Gordon has ridden Vitalline to 3 of those 4 career wins — that is a win rate of 12%, or roughly 1 in every 8 rides. When you consider the horse has barely won at all without her, it starts to look less like coincidence and more like chemistry.

Vitalline's most recent win came at Kempton Park on 4 March 2026, eight weeks ago — and given the last six results read 8-6-10-5-5-1 from most recent backwards, the horse clearly went through a flat spell before that victory. Racing just one day ago, Vitalline is very much an active runner, trained by Keiran Burke at his yard in Whitcombe, Dorset — a team that has sent out 13 winners already this season. The first career win came at Chelmsford in March 2024, which means Vitalline has found the winner's circle twice in just over two years.

This is not a horse that will ever headline a big occasion. But for anyone who appreciates persistence, a well-matched jockey partnership, and a horse that seems to save its best for when the ground is heavy and the conditions are against everyone else — Vitalline is well worth following.
