The recent form shows a horse that remains capable at the right moment. Last time out just yesterday, Kimi De Mai finished third. Before that came another third-place finish, then a seventh, then a pair of seconds — decent efforts that suggest the horse runs in races where it belongs. Trainer W. P. Mullins, based at Muine Bheag in County Carlow, has sent out 215 winners already this season from his powerful yard, so the infrastructure and expertise are absolutely there. Kimi De Mai is getting every chance to break through.
What keeps this horse interesting is not its win rate but its consistency in the places. That five-from-nine placing record — even without a victory — indicates a horse that stays competitive race after race, running in the right company and competing hard. For many racing people, that's a sign of a genuine, honest animal: not flashy, not a champion, but reliable. The question now is whether Kimi De Mai will eventually find that one winning race, or whether it will remain one of those horses that frames remarkably but never quite wins.
