Having raced just yesterday, Cuban Heels is about as active as racehorses get, which tells you its team are not shy about keeping it busy. It is trained by the high-profile Newmarket yard of J & T Gosden, which is one of the most respected operations in British racing. The numbers back that up: 140 winners sent out this season alone is a remarkable output, meaning this yard finds the winner's enclosure roughly every two and a half days on average. When a stable of that calibre keeps running a horse, it usually means they see something worth persisting with.
At two years old, Cuban Heels is still very much at the beginning of its story. Horses this young are still learning the job — how to settle, how to race, how to find that extra gear when it matters. A horse with a second place already on its record at this stage of its career is not a horse in trouble; it is a horse building towards something. The Gosden yard have a habit of producing winners, and with the form line trending in the right direction, Cuban Heels looks like a horse worth keeping an eye on.
