Poet's Sonnet

Poet's Sonnet is a five-year-old horse still searching for his first win after two races without a place finish. He hasn't crossed the line in the money yet, finishing fourth most recently and ninth before that. With races just a day apart, he's been kept busy — which suggests the yard believes there is something to find, even if the results haven't shown it on track yet. At five years old, he's well established in racing, so the gaps between races will matter: back-to-back runs like these can take it out of a horse, or they can help find the right race and the right conditions. His next outing will tell us whether patience and repetition might finally turn things around, or whether Poet's Sonnet and his the yard need to rethink their approach entirely.
