The recent form shows some consistency in the mix. Over the last six races, he has finished 4th, 4th, 2nd, 6th, 2nd, and 4th — meaning two top-3 finishes in that stretch, including a second place two runs ago. He's still racing, having been out just a day ago, which suggests the yard sees enough promise to keep him in work. At Class 4 level, where he typically races, he has zero wins from three attempts, so he is punching at a level where the gaps between the runners can be narrow and unforgiving.
Mickey Bowen's yard at Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire, has sent out 52 winners this season, which means there is genuine quality coming through that operation. The fact that Roi du Roume keeps being saddled up suggests the trainer believes there is improvement to come, or at least that the right race will suit him. For a horse without a win to its name at six years old, that faith from the yard is perhaps the most encouraging thing about his profile.
