Clone Cross
Five races in and still waiting for that first win, Clone Cross is a five-year-old who has found ways to get involved without quite getting over the line. Two placed efforts from five races tells you there is something there — the horse has been competitive enough to feature — but converting that promise into a victory has so far proved elusive.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

🔍 Full Analysis
TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
The most recent run, just yesterday, produced a second-place finish, which is the most encouraging sign in the recent record. Before that, three blank runs suggest a period where Clone Cross was struggling to land a blow at all, and a sixth-place finish rounds out the picture. It is the kind of form that keeps the yard hopeful without giving them too much to celebrate.
Trainer Simon Cavanagh operates out of Mullingar in Co. Westmeath, a small yard that has sent out one winner so far this season. That context matters — this is not a powerhouse operation with dozens of horses firing on all cylinders, so getting Clone Cross into a winning position will likely require finding the right opportunity rather than relying on strength of numbers. Yesterday's second place, though, suggests the horse is at least heading in the right direction.
