Chief Josef

Four races, no wins, no places — Chief Josef has yet to give the yard... yet to give his trainer Ciaran Murphy much to celebrate so far. The four-year-old has finished sixth, fourth, tenth, and sixth in his career to date, and while that fourth-place finish hints at some ability lurking somewhere, the tenth suggests there are days when things go badly wrong.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

Murphy trains out of Mullingar in Co. Westmeath and has sent out 18 winners this season, so the yard clearly knows how to get horses winning. The question is whether Chief Josef can follow suit. He raced just yesterday, so he is firmly in the middle of his campaign — there is no suggestion this one is done for the season.

At this stage, Chief Josef is a horse still looking for his moment. Four races is not a long story, and some horses take time to find their feet. Murphy will know better than anyone whether the talent is there — it just hasn't shown up in the results yet.
