UK Horse Racing Tips

Sir Michael Stoute has attained exceptional racing success from Freemason Lodge in Newmarket. A winner of numerous Classic contests in the United Kingdom and prestigious races across the world, his achievements make enviable reading to even the most talented of trainers of horses.

Stoute generally trains 40 – 55 two-year-old horses each season, varying from the run-of-the-mill maidens to pattern race hopes. A trainer with a wealth of affluent owners, many youngsters have impeccable breeding and feature similarly lofty price tags. With a general win rate of 20% and 44% win and place, Stoute is a consistent trainer with colts and fillies racing selectively. Such is his reputation, that over half of all juveniles start at odds of 13/2 and less on debut and few juveniles win beyond this restricted price guide. In recent years, debutantes have attained a success rate of 14% and a win and place of 33%. Certainly as a betting proposition it may be concluded that the odds on many of this trainer’s juveniles are on the short side due to his popularity as a handler of potentially classy two-year-old horses.

Statistics identify that juveniles have a much greater chance of winning on their second start at similar odds. In addition, juveniles attain a much higher place rate, too. Two-year-old horses can appear as early as May but the majority race from July onwards. Stoute trains for some of the most influential owners in the world: Her Majesty The Queen, K Abdulla & Hamdan Al Maktoum being a selection of a glittering assembly of the great and good within racing. In the last five years, his juveniles have amassed total prize winnings of more than £600,000.
