Work

Stalker
Work

Work is the lunch-pail horse. No flash, no sizzle, just a grinder who punches the clock every day. He's the kind of horse that connections believe in more than the public does — and honestly? The GPS data says they might not be crazy. His numbers are quietly improving every time out.

Fun Facts

  • His one-word name is the shortest in the entire GPS database
  • Has finished in the exact same position (4th) in morning workouts 11 times in a row — the ultimate metronome
  • Trainer Bill Mott calls him 'the most honest horse in the barn'

Strengths

  • GPS speed curve shows steady, linear acceleration — no wasted energy throughout the race
  • Stride efficiency of 2.24 means he's mechanically sound and unlikely to break down
  • Improving trajectory — each of his last 4 GPS speed profiles shows a 0.15 ft/s overall increase

Weaknesses

  • Top speed of 17.1 ft/s is the lowest among stalkers in the CNL field — lacks a killer gear
  • Has only won once in 8 starts, suggesting he may be a perpetual also-ran at the stakes level
