Lunar Empress

Trained by Mrs J. Harrington at Moone in Co Kildare, Lunar Empress is part of a yard in fine form this season, with 53 winners already sent out. That kind of win rate suggests the trainer knows how to get horses to the line, which is encouraging for this filly's future prospects. At two, there is still plenty of time for her to break through. The fact that she keeps finishing close — rather than trailing the field — suggests she has ability; she simply needs to find a race where everything clicks and she can close out a victory. Her recent second suggests she is not far away from that breakthrough moment.
