Trained by Kieran P Cotter at Portarlington, the horse has been actively campaigned. Its most recent outing came just a day ago, and looking back over the last six races, there's been nothing to suggest an imminent breakthrough — finishes of 13th, 7th, 19th, 9th, and 10th tell a story of a horse still learning the ropes and finding its level. The yard itself is in decent form this season with six winners already, so there's experience behind the scenes at least.
At three years old, Alandownunder still has time to develop, but the reality is that without a win yet from nine attempts, patience is wearing thin. Whether this horse will ever reach the winner's enclosure remains to be seen, but for now it remains a work in progress — the kind of horse that keeps racing because the team believes there's something there, even if the evidence on paper hasn't quite caught up yet.
