Believeinmenow
Believeinmenow has yet to find the winner's circle in fourteen attempts, but trainer
Nigel Tinkler sees something worth patience in this three-year-old. The horse has picked up five places from those races — most recently finishing fourth at Beverley and second at one of his other outings — which suggests he is competitive at his level even if victory remains elusive. His recent form reads 4-2-4-9-3-7 across his last six runs, a mixed picture that includes that respectable second and a couple of mid-field efforts alongside a ninth place that, by Tinkler's own assessment, does not reflect his true ability.

Faye McManoman, who has ridden Believeinmenow seven times, has yet to steer him to a win, though the horse continues to run for the Langton yard in Yorkshire. Tinkler's plan is straightforward: one more race on the all-weather surface before a winter break. The trainer was clear that the horse simply needs time. At three years old, Believeinmenow still has room to develop, and Tinkler believes next season will bring real improvement. The fourth-place finish at Beverley that preceded his last run had already caught Tinkler's attention as a sign of promise — a solid effort that suggests the winning form may come once this young horse matures. For now, he remains a work in progress rather than a lost cause.
