That said, Colvin is clearly still being kept busy — he raced just yesterday, which tells you the team at S R B Crawford's yard in Larne, Co Antrim, still believe there is something worth running. Crawford has sent out 12 winners this season, so this is not a yard short of ability or ambition. Recent form shows a fourth-place finish in there, which is the closest Colvin has come to a payout, but subsequent runs of eighth, sixth, sixteenth, and seventh suggest that fourth may have flattered rather than signalled a turning point.
The honest truth is that a horse without a single win or place from eight races is still searching for its moment. Whether that moment comes is the question every racing fan loves — because in this sport, it only has to happen once.
