African Affair
African Affair is a 3-year-old who has run twice so far and is yet to trouble the judge, finishing 12th and 15th in those two outings. That makes for tough reading on paper, but two races is a tiny sample — plenty of horses take time to find their feet, and the fact that African Affair raced just yesterday means the team at Summerhill clearly haven't given up on finding the right opportunity.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

🔍 Full Analysis
TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
The horse is trained by Ms Sheila Lavery, based in Co. Meath, a yard that has sent out 3 winners already this season. Lavery is a patient handler, and with a young horse still learning the ropes, that experience in placing horses can matter as much as raw talent.
There is not a great deal to go on yet. Two runs, two mid-field finishes, no wins and no placed efforts — African Affair has not shown much so far. But 3-year-olds are works in progress, and the real question is whether the yard can find a race that suits. Watch this space.
