Let Him B

At six years old, Let Him B is established enough in racing that his form is what it is. Partnered most often by jockey Philip Byrnes, the pair have raced together nine times with a single win between them, which reflects the wider picture: a horse who competes honestly but lacks the class or consistency to dominate. The trainer's yard remains active and productive — C Byrnes has sent out 26 winners already this season — but Let Him B himself remains a modest earner at the bottom of that tally. With five months now gone since his last win and yesterday's ninth-place run suggesting he is still searching, he is a horse whose day may simply have been that one afternoon at Down Royal back in the spring.
