Gentle Annie
Six years old and yet to taste victory, Gentle Annie has spent her entire racing career so far as a nearly horse — close enough to show she belongs, but not quite close enough to win. Across six races, she has managed one place without ever reaching the top step, which is a tough run of results by any measure. That said, she was racing just yesterday, so this is very much an unfinished story.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
Her recent form reads as a mixed picture. A couple of those runs — finishing ninth and tenth — suggest days where things simply did not come together. But tucked in there is a third-place finish, which tells you she can be competitive when conditions suit. The challenge for the team now is finding out what unlocks her best.
She is trained by Terence O'Brien, operating out of Carrigtoohill in County Cork. The yard has sent out 10 winners already this season, which shows there is no shortage of ability on the training side. O'Brien clearly knows how to get horses winning — Gentle Annie just needs to find her moment.
