Chesterbaylad

His recent form shows glimpses of promise mixed with the frustration that defines his record. In his last six races he has posted two placings — finishing second once and fourth once — but also a tenth-place finish, suggesting he can still produce moments when things go right but rarely strings them together. Ridden regularly by Conor Smithers in five outings, the partnership has yet to break through into the winner's circle, which adds another layer of difficulty to a horse that simply does not win often enough to sustain much hope. With his last race just a day ago, Chesterbaylad remains actively campaigned, but at five years old and with such a modest record, time is running out to establish himself as anything more than a battler at smaller tracks.
