Grant Tuer trains Pepsea out of his yard in Birkby, North Yorkshire, and this has been a solid season for the operation — 26 winners sent out already, which tells you this is a trainer who knows how to get horses ready to perform. Tuer has spoken warmly about Pepsea, describing him as a big, strong type who he believes will improve as the season goes on. The trainer's view is that the horse still has a touch of greenness about him — that slight rawness that young horses carry before experience and confidence catch up with physical ability. In other words, Pepsea hasn't fully clicked yet, but the stable clearly believes it's a matter of when, not if.
With just two races under his belt, Pepsea is still very much a work in progress. A runner-up finish at this early stage of a career, with a trainer who rates him and a yard in form, is a decent enough platform to build from. The next run will be worth watching.
