Karma d'Airy

The horse is six years old, finished third on her most recent outing, and raced just yesterday, so things are moving quickly. Mullins has spoken warmly about her size and physical scope — essentially meaning she is built like a horse that will eventually grow into something bigger and better. The plan for now is to keep racing over hurdles, the smaller obstacles, with a view to switching her to fences further down the line. That is a common and deliberate path for horses with real potential — you let them learn their trade before asking the bigger questions.

In short, the results do not matter much here. What matters is that one of the sport's sharpest eyes has looked at Karma d'Airy and already decided there is something worth nurturing.
