Not That Guy
Not That Guy broke through with his first career win at Wolverhampton just this week, a breakthrough that comes after two placed finishes earlier in his short racing life. The three-year-old, trained by
Hugo Palmer's outfit at Malpas in Cheshire, has won 1 of his 3 races so far — a respectable win rate for a horse still finding his feet. His recent form tells an encouraging story: a win last time out, a second-place finish before that, and a fifth earlier in the sequence. That's solid progression for a young horse learning his trade.

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
Palmer's yard has been firing on all cylinders this season with 67 winners already, so Not That Guy is in the hands of trainers who know how to get horses winning. At Wolverhampton, where he claimed his maiden victory, the horse has already shown he can handle what the track demands. Whether he can build on this first success and develop into a regular winner remains to be seen — a single victory tells you he's capable, but it takes several more to establish a real pattern — but the signs so far are encouraging enough to keep an eye on him.
