What works in Greer Hill's favour is the yard behind the horse. Trainer Jennie Candlish, based in Basford, Staffordshire, has sent out 60 winners this season — that is a productive operation by any measure, and horses trained there tend to be fit and well-prepared. Candlish clearly knows how to get a horse ready to run, which suggests that if Greer Hill has ability, it will eventually show up. The horse raced just yesterday, so the yard are clearly keeping busy and looking for opportunities.
The level Greer Hill has been competing at — Class 4, which sits in the lower-middle tier of British racing — is not the deepest water, yet even there the horse has drawn a blank in all three attempts at that grade. Finding the right race at the right time will be the challenge for the team, and patience may be the most important ingredient from here.
