Buddy Holly
Buddy Holly is a 5-year-old horse that has yet to find the winner's circle. In five races, the horse has managed one placing finish but no victories, hitting the track most recently just a day ago with a seventh-place result. Over the last five outings, form has been patchy—nothing better than a third-place finish came back in the fourth run, a position that remains the horse's highest achievement to date.Based on TrackLab's analysis
