What makes the next chapter interesting is that Fallacy has been off the track for roughly three months. A break like that at this stage of a career can mean many things — a minor setback, a chance to mature and fill out, or simply the yard waiting for conditions that suit. Whatever the reason, horses often come back improved after time away, and that first run back is always one to watch.
The trainer here is Andrew Slattery, operating out of Thurles in County Tipperary, and the yard is clearly in fine form — 57 winners on the board this season, which is a serious tally and suggests Slattery knows how to get a horse ready to perform. When a stable is firing like that, it's worth paying attention when they bring a returning horse back to the track. They don't tend to run them without reason.
Fallacy has everything still to prove, but the combination of a strong yard, a period of freshening up, and the natural improvement that can come with age means this is a horse worth keeping an eye on as it heads into its next race.
