What is worth paying attention to is who has the reins here. Trainer Richard Hannon, based at Herridge in Wiltshire, has already sent out 118 winners this season alone — that is a remarkable volume of success and puts the yard among the most active and productive in Britain. When a horse is in the care of an operation firing at that level, a quiet debut should not be mistaken for a sign of things to come. Hannon's yard has a long track record of bringing young horses along steadily, and a fifth-place finish first time out is nothing unusual for a two-year-old still learning the job.
With only one race on the clock and another run likely coming soon, Persian Spring is simply a horse to watch rather than judge. The next outing will tell us far more.
