Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
Trained by Joseph Patrick O'Brien at Owning Hill in County Kilkenny, Nellcote has the backing of a yard in outstanding form this season — O'Brien has already saddled 160 winners. The horse broke through at Limerick in July with its maiden win, and has since proved that was no fluke. The fact that it has won twice in its last four races, including a victory this week, suggests it is being pitched at the right level and is improving with racing. For a three-year-old this early in its career with this kind of record, the future looks genuinely promising. O'Brien clearly sees something worth developing, and the horse is responding.
