It's A Mugs Game

The recent form chart reads 7-7-8-6-4-10, and while that fourth-place finish three races ago represents the closest this horse has come to the money, the pattern shows inconsistency. Joe Tickle trains at Stoodleigh in Devon, a yard that has had 20 winners this season, suggesting the team knows what it is doing. That It's A Mugs Game has not yet kicked one in despite being in a competent stable points to either the horse still needing time to find its feet, or that it may simply be one of those animals that struggles to beat the others at this level. With the horse still active and having raced just yesterday, the yard are clearly continuing to search for a winning opportunity.
