What stands out in her recent form is the stubborn consistency. Looking at her last six races, she has finished third on three separate occasions and picked up a fifth and a fourth along the way. That is a horse that is nearly always competitive, always somewhere in the mix, but somehow always finding one or two too good on the day. For punters, that kind of horse can be maddening. For anyone watching neutrally, there is something quietly compelling about a horse that keeps trying.
She raced just yesterday, which tells you the yard believes she is in good enough shape to keep running. Whether a first win is coming is the open question. Horses with her profile — plenty of racing experience, reliable placed efforts, but no breakthrough — sometimes click at the right moment when the right race comes along. Others keep finishing third. At this stage, Ellie's de Vega has done everything except win, and that remains the only thing that matters.
