This season tells a similar story: 4 winners from 39 runners, which works out at roughly 1 in every 10 races. That's a respectable return at this level of the game, where patience and consistency matter far more than the occasional lucky strike.
The most reliable thread running through Honour's operation is his partnership with jockey Bryan Carver. Across 28 rides together, they've combined for 4 wins — a win rate of around 1 in every 7, or 14%. In a sport where trainer-jockey combinations can take time to click, that kind of record suggests genuine understanding between the two. When Carver is booked for a Honour horse, it's worth paying attention.
One pattern worth noting is how well Honour's horses perform on normal ground conditions. In 14 races run on a standard surface, his yard has produced 3 winners — that's 21%, or better than 1 in every 5. For context, that's more than double his overall season win rate, which suggests he has an eye for placing his horses when conditions suit them best. Getting the conditions right is one of the underrated skills in training, and that number hints Honour is developing a good feel for it.
The one name that hasn't delivered yet is Dalcassian Girl, with whom Honour has drawn a blank across 4 races together. No wins from 4 is a run that will be on both of their minds — but four races is still a relatively short sample, and there's plenty of time for that particular story to turn.
