Hey Havana
Hey Havana has yet to visit the winner's enclosure in fifteen attempts, but the 3-year-old is accumulating a respectable tally of close calls — five top-3 finishes that suggest something is beginning to click. His most recent outing, just a day ago, saw him finish fourth at Redcar, a respectable effort that trainer
Stephen Hanlon believes points in the right direction. The Yorkshire trainer, based at Constable Burton, has been patient with the horse and is optimistic about breaking through. Hanlon acknowledges the learning curve has been steep — "It's taken a while for the penny to drop" — but sees genuine potential in the colt over the coming months.

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
The form over his last six races tells a story of gradual improvement rather than consistent disappointment. Two recent top-3 finishes, including a second place, sit alongside the fourth at Redcar, suggesting Hey Havana is getting closer to victory. With that fourth-place finish just days old, Hanlon is already thinking about another run before the year ends, hoping the momentum continues. The Constable Burton yard itself is in decent form this season, having sent out four winners, so the infrastructure is there to capitalize when Hey Havana finally gets over the line. For a young horse still learning his trade, five top-3 finishes from fifteen races is not a wasted effort — it's the foundation of a potential breakthrough.
