The recent form makes for honest reading. Back-to-back third-place finishes early in the sequence showed promise, but the last couple of runs have seen the horse slip further back, finishing ninth and eleventh. That kind of drift in the numbers is worth watching — it could be the horse finding its level, or simply a rough patch that a change in conditions might fix.
What does work in I'm Just Ken's favour is the stable it calls home. Hugo Palmer, based in Malpas, Cheshire, has sent out 66 winners already this season — that is the output of a yard that knows what it is doing. When a trainer is operating at that volume of success, it generally means the horses are well-prepared and well-placed. Palmer will have a clear enough picture of where I'm Just Ken fits and, more importantly, where it might finally win. The first victory is still out there somewhere, and with a busy, confident yard behind it, the opportunity to find the right race will come.
