The headline achievement is his record in the biggest races. Six Class 1 wins — the top tier of British racing — in four years is the kind of number that earns genuine respect. These are the races where the best horses and best trainers in the country turn up, and Scott has beaten them at Cheltenham, Newcastle, and Newbury, three of the sport's most prestigious venues. Three of those wins came in the space of nine months between February and November 2025, which suggests the yard is not just dabbling at the top table but arriving there with real intent.
One horse has become central to Scott's story: Came From Nowhere, with whom he has won 3 races from just 9 together. That is a remarkable one-in-three ratio and speaks to a horse and trainer who clearly suit each other well. On the jockey front, Lorcan Williams has been his most consistent ally — 11 wins from 99 rides, winning 11 in every 100 races they combine for, a relationship built on repetition and trust that tends to produce results over time.
Two other patterns are worth noting. Scott does noticeably better when the ground is wet or muddy — 5 wins from 26 races in those conditions works out at 19%, or roughly 1 in every 5, comfortably above his overall average. That suggests he trains horses who genuinely relish testing ground rather than simply tolerating it. Taunton, meanwhile, has become a productive hunting ground, with 3 winners from 21 runners at a track many trainers treat as an afterthought. For a yard of Scott's age, having a local track where you clearly know how to place a horse is a useful edge to have.
Four years in, six top-level wins, and a Cheltenham success already on the board — Scott is one of the more compelling young trainers in Britain right now.
