Lara Antipova
Lara Antipova is a three-year-old with genuine promise but a frustrating pattern of near-misses. The horse has won just one of its six career races, but that single victory — at Lingfield Park in mid-April — came at a track where it clearly belongs. More telling than the win rate is what has happened since: Lara Antipova has finished second or fourth in every single race over the last four months, with three placings in the last six runs. This is a horse that consistently runs well enough to threaten but rarely closes the deal.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
Tom Clover's Newmarket yard knows what it is doing — the stable has already sent out 23 winners this season — and the trainer clearly sees something in this horse worth persisting with. The fact that Lara Antipova raced just a day ago and is actively campaigned suggests Clover believes another winning opportunity is not far away. The challenge now is turning those near-misses into victories. A horse that can pick up placings as regularly as this one does has the form to win races; the question is whether it will rediscover the winning touch it showed back at Lingfield, or whether something small is holding it back from that final leap.
