Divine Wish

Trained by Mike Murphy at Westoning in Bedfordshire, Divine Wish runs for a yard that has had a solid season, sending out 15 winners so far. Despite that, Divine Wish's profile stands apart from the yard's successful runners. With no wins from five attempts and no placed finishes either, the horse has not yet shown the ability to finish in the frame. It raced just yesterday, which means Murphy will be plotting the next move for Divine Wish soon. Finding the right race—perhaps one where the standard drops or the conditions favour a fresh approach—will be crucial if the horse is to get off the mark. For now, Divine Wish remains a work in progress, still learning what it takes to succeed on the track.
