Close To Me
Three races, no wins, no places — Close To Me has yet to give her supporters much to shout about. The 4-year-old has finished ninth, eighth, and pulled up or was brought home without completing in her three outings, which paints a picture of a horse still finding its feet in competitive company, or perhaps one that has encountered some physical difficulty along the way.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

What makes the situation worth watching is the stable behind her. Ian Williams operates out of Alvechurch in Worcestershire, and his yard has sent out 92 winners already this season — that is a serious training operation by any measure. A trainer producing that kind of volume knows how to place a horse, and when a yard is firing at that level, the horses in its care tend to improve or find their right spot eventually. The fact that Close To Me raced just three days ago suggests the team still believe there is something to work with.
At this early stage of her career, the results are modest at best. But with a powerful yard behind her and only three races on the clock, it is far too soon to write her off.
