Not In A Hurry
Not In A Hurry has shown rare early promise for a four-year-old, winning two of its last three races and landing a victory just this week at Fairyhouse. The horse raced again only a day ago, which suggests it is being kept active by trainer
Aidan Anthony Howard at the Curragh yard—a useful sign that the yard believe it has more to offer. Over three races, it has won twice and finished placed once, a win rate of roughly two wins in every three outings.

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
The horse took its maiden win at Kilbeggan in early September, then returned to the winner's circle last week at Fairyhouse. The form in between—a placed effort—is typical of a horse still learning, but the quick return to winning ways shows it has not been put off by a single defeat. Howard's yard has been selective this season, producing only two winners overall, which hints that Not In A Hurry may be receiving focused attention. For a four-year-old still establishing itself on the track, that kind of careful handling and regular racing could be exactly what it needs to climb the ladder.
