Dynamite Defense

The best distance for Dynamite Defense appears to be somewhere between a mile and a furlong and a mile and two furlongs, where it has won 1 from 6 races — a 17% win rate, or roughly 1 in every 6. That's actually a respectable conversion at that trip compared to its overall career numbers, and suggests the team at least knows where to point it for the best chance. Trainer Sarah-Jayne Davies runs a small operation out of Leominster in Herefordshire that has sent out 5 winners this season, so there are winners coming out of the yard — Dynamite Defense just hasn't been one of them lately.

The jockey most associated with the horse is J M Sheridan, who has ridden it six times without a win together. That partnership hasn't clicked yet, though it's worth noting that the horse's overall record doesn't really suggest the jockey is the problem — this is simply a horse that places more than it wins. It raced just yesterday, so it's very much in active work, and the team clearly believes there's another day out there worth finding.
