Near Perfection
Near Perfection is a 3-year-old still finding its way on the track. The horse has run three times without winning, though it did finish second once — a sign it has the ability to get competitive. Most recently, it finished fifth just a day ago, which came after a third-place finish in the race before that. The form suggests it is still working out what it takes to win at this level.Based on TrackLab's analysis
