Highland Bear
Four races in and still searching for that first win, Highland Bear is a 4-year-old with a bit of a puzzle around her. Her best finish so far is a runner-up, and her recent form of 2-7-6-4 — read backwards as her career — shows a horse who started with some promise, faded through the middle, and then came back to finish second last time out. That turnaround is worth watching.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
She ran just yesterday, so she is very much in the thick of her season, and that second place shows she is capable of getting competitive. The question is whether she can push her nose in front before her rivals do.
The trainer behind him is Julie Camacho, operating out of Norton in North Yorkshire — a yard that has sent out 46 winners already this season, which tells you this is not a small operation finding its feet. Camacho runs a busy, productive stable, and horses in her care tend to be placed with purpose. The fact that Highland Bear has not won yet is not necessarily a red flag — it may simply mean the right opportunity has not arrived. When a trainer of that calibre keeps running a horse, it usually means they believe the win is coming.
