That said, there is a flicker of something in those numbers if you squint hard enough. The most recent finishes of 7th and 8th represent a modest step up from the 13th on debut, and at least the direction of travel is the right way. Whether that trajectory continues remains to be seen — Double Indian raced just one day ago, so the question of what comes next is very much live.
The one genuinely encouraging detail here is the stable this horse calls home. Trainer Mrs John Harrington, operating out of Moone in Co Kildare, has sent out 53 winners already this season — that is a yard firing on all cylinders, with the kind of volume that suggests they know how to place a horse and get the best out of it. When a trainer of that quality persists with a horse that hasn't yet delivered, it usually means they believe there is ability in there waiting to come out. Whether Double Indian can repay that faith is the interesting question.
