Will Scarlet
Will Scarlet is a 5-year-old who has found winning harder to come by than most, with just 1 win and 2 places from 6 races — roughly 1 in every 6 attempts resulting in victory. That might sound modest, but the win itself tells a story worth telling: it came at Meydan in Dubai on 13 March 2026, one of the most glamorous racing venues in the world and a track that attracts serious horses from across the globe. Winning there is no small thing.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
The recent form figures — 9-1-5-2 — show a horse that has been running consistently without always hitting the front, and that second place suggests Will Scarlet is competitive at this level even when not quite finding the extra gear to win. Having raced just yesterday, this is a horse very much in the thick of an active campaign, and the team will be hoping that Meydan win two months ago has given it the confidence to build on.
Behind the horse sits a powerful operation. Trainer duo Simon and Ed Crisford are based at Newmarket, the heartland of British flat racing, and their yard has sent out 79 winners already this season — a figure that speaks to a well-run, high-volume stable with horses ready to perform. When a yard is operating at that kind of tempo, the horses in it tend to be fit, sharp, and placed in races where they have a genuine chance. Will Scarlet is in good hands, and with that Meydan win on the CV, there is clearly more to come.
