Recent form tells a mixed story. Over the last six races, Dash of Class has posted a 9th place, followed by a 7th, then a 6th, a 2nd, a 3rd, and most recently a 5th just a day ago. That 2nd place finish four races back was the closest the horse has come to victory, but it has drifted away from the frame since. The fact that it is still actively racing despite winless runs suggests the the yard believe improvement is coming, or that the horse is being given time to find its level.
Three places from eleven attempts means Dash of Class is in the money roughly once every four races. Whether the horse is still learning at three years old, or has simply been pointed at races a shade too competitive, only time will tell. For now, this is a horse that shows promise in glimpses — that 2nd place proved it can run well — but has not yet pieced it all together into a winning performance.
