The horse's recent form tells a familiar story of inconsistency. In the last six outings, Jolly D'olivate has finished second once (a near-miss), fifth once, then seventh, eighth, ninth and thirteenth. It's the kind of pattern that suggests the horse is capable of earning a spot in the frame but struggles to deliver consistently. Still active and having raced just a day ago, there's no sign the horse is being retired, which means the yard still believes there is more to come.
Rothwell's operation at Tinahely has sent out 35 winners this season, so there is experience and success in the yard. Whether Jolly D'olivate will finally break through remains to be seen, but at seven years old and with no wins to its name, time is becoming a factor.
