What's particularly interesting is the recent pattern. Looking at the last six runs, Roi de Coeur has been genuinely competitive — a win, then a second place, then a fifth, another second, another win, and a fifth again. That's not the record of a horse just scrambling along; it's a horse that regularly gets close and occasionally delivers the goods. Still active after racing just a day ago, the animal is clearly a frequent visitor to the track, which counts for something in itself.
Marco Botti's Newmarket yard has sent out 45 winners this season, so Roi de Coeur is in the hands of a trainer running a productive operation. For a 3-year-old with two wins under its belt and genuine form in the book, this horse has room to improve and every reason to keep a close eye on.
