One More Chrome

What stands out is where One More Chrome tends to compete. In three races at Class 4 level—the kind of competitive races where a win really matters—the horse has not yet found the winning post, though that one victory did come at a lower grade. The overall record of one win and one place from five races gives a win rate of roughly one in every five attempts, which is modest but not nothing for a young horse still finding its feet. Trainer B F Brookhouse, whose yard has sent out 10 winners already this season, will be hoping that the enforced rest has done One More Chrome good. A six-month break can sharpen a horse up, or it can leave one ring-rusty. The answer will come when the horse steps back onto the track, likely looking to build on that single Nottingham success and prove it can handle the step up in grade.
