Howyoulikethat

The horse's recent form makes grim reading. In his last six outings, he has finished nowhere near the frame, with a run of results reading 9th, 11th, 3rd, 7th, 4th, and 8th. That third-place finish offers the only glimmer — a reminder that he can still run competitively — but it sits among otherwise anonymous performances. He raced just yesterday, suggesting the yard is still hunting for the race where he might click again, though the odds of rediscovering his old form at this stage look increasingly remote.

His partnership with jockey Ben Coen has been his most productive arrangement, with the pair combining for 2 wins from 7 races together — a win rate of better than 1 in 4. That 29% success rate stands in sharp contrast to his overall record, hinting that Coen understands how to get the best from him. But even this proven combination has not produced a winner recently. Trained by Miss Hilary McLoughlin at Thurles in Co. Tipperary, Howyoulikethat remains a genuine trier, the kind of honest horse that keeps showing up to race despite years of modest returns and long stretches without success.
