Mohaasset

Trained by Mike Sowersby out of a small yard in Little Barugh, North Yorkshire, Mohaasset has done most of its racing at Class 4 level — the mid-tier of British racing, where competition is decent but not elite. Three of those four races have come at this level, and the record reads zero wins from three attempts. Sowersby's yard has sent out six winners this season, so the operation clearly knows how to get a horse to the line first — Mohaasset just hasn't been the one to deliver it yet.

What makes this worth watching is that the horse raced just yesterday and is clearly in an active campaign. Trainers don't keep running a horse that often without believing there is something worth finding. Whether Mohaasset can build on that improving fifth and eventually break through remains to be seen, but at three years old, there is still time on its side.
