Desert Outlaw
Desert Outlaw is still hunting his first win after three unplaced races to start his career, though the 2-year-old remains actively racing. Trained by
Paul Midgley at Westow in North Yorkshire, he has yet to trouble the scoreboard, finishing tenth, sixth, and ninth in his most recent outings — a bumpy introduction to the track.

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
What the horse lacks in results so far, his yard makes up for in form. Midgley's operation has sent out 39 winners this season, suggesting Desert Outlaw is in a stable that knows how to develop young horses and get them competitive. For a 2-year-old still learning his trade, three races without a win is hardly unusual — many top horses take time to break through — and the fact he has been back out just a day after his last race shows the yard is keeping him active and trying to find the right opportunity. Whether that breakthrough comes soon will tell us whether he has a real future on the track.
