Brunhilde

Her most recent form tells an encouraging story. She was fourth in her last race just yesterday, but before that she strung together two consecutive placed finishes, with a win sandwiched in between. That mix of results — fourth, first, second, second, fourth across her last five runs — shows a horse that can mix it with her rivals on her day but is not yet reliable. The gap of eight weeks since her only win suggests her trainer, George Boughey, may have been patient in getting her back to the track. Boughey's Newmarket yard has sent out 99 winners already this season, so she is in capable hands. Now that she is racing regularly again, the question is whether she can recapture that form at Lingfield and build on what has been a solid, if unspectacular, start to her racing life.
