Miss Yechance

Her recent form tells the story of a horse finding her feet. In her last six races, she's won twice, placed twice more, and had only one poor outing—a seventh-place finish. That's roughly 2 wins and 2 places from 6 starts, which is the kind of consistency trainers dream about building on. Overall, across her 13 races, she's won 5 and placed 7 times, which gives her a 38% win rate—she finishes in the first three in nearly eight of every ten races she runs. That's genuinely impressive form for a horse still only three years old.

K. R. Burke's Coverham yard in North Yorkshire has sent out 145 winners this season alone, so she's in a operation that knows how to get horses winning. The fact that Miss Yechance has raced just once in the last day and is still competing suggests she's healthy and active, and the yard clearly believes there's more to come from her. At three years old with this level of winning form, she looks like a horse who could keep adding to her record.
