Trained by Oliver Greenall and Josh Guerriero out of their yard in Oldcastle, Cheshire, New Invention is in capable hands at least. The team has sent out 42 winners already this season, which shows this is a yard that knows how to get horses into the winner's enclosure — the question is whether they can find the right opportunity to get New Invention there too. The horse raced just yesterday, so the yard are clearly keeping it busy and looking for openings.
Most of its racing has come at Class 5 level — the entry-level tier of British racing — where it has gone 0 from 3. That is actually where you would expect a horse without a win to be placed, as trainers typically drop horses into easier races to give them a chance. The fact that it hasn't converted even at that level suggests it may need a very specific set of circumstances to get off the mark. Recent form figures of 9th, 8th, and 11th don't paint a flattering picture, though a horse finishing in double digits isn't necessarily without ability — field sizes vary, and there's often more to the story than the number alone. Still, there is work to do.
