The recent form makes for tough reading. Looking at the last six races, the finishing positions read 8th, 11th, 7th, 13th, 8th and 4th going back in time — and that 4th place is actually the highlight of the sequence, suggesting things have been moving in the wrong direction rather than improving. Racing just yesterday, Rodeeve remains active, but the pattern of mid-to-back-of-field finishes will be a concern for anyone hoping for a breakthrough.
Wesley Joyce has stuck with Rodeeve more than any other jockey, riding the horse in 7 of those 12 races without managing to turn things around — zero wins from seven attempts together is a partnership that has loyalty going for it, if not results. At some point the team around Rodeeve will need to ask some hard questions about where, and whether, a win can realistically be found.
