Juke Hill
Juke Hill has yet to break the ice in nine races over hurdles, but his trainer
Gordon Elliott sees something worth developing in the six-year-old. Despite a record of two placings and no wins so far, Elliott believes the horse has potential as a long-distance chaser once he matures. The most encouraging sign is that he is still racing regularly and actively competing, which means the yard hasn't written him off as a lost cause.

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
Elliott's yard at Longwood, Co Meath, is one of the powerhouses of Irish racing, sending out 210 winners this season alone, so there's serious infrastructure and expertise behind the horse. The plan, according to the trainer, is to drop Juke Hill back into a race he can win at before gradually stepping him up in trip and moving him toward chasing—a discipline that can suit staying types who haven't quite found their feet over hurdles. Whether that move will unlock whatever potential Elliott sees remains to be seen, but the fact that a trainer of Elliott's caliber thinks the horse is worth the time and patience suggests Juke Hill's story may not be over yet.
