Rough 'n' Smooth
Four races, no wins, no places, and a string of finishing positions that read like a losing lottery ticket — 8th, 4th, 8th, 8th. At six years old, Rough 'n' Smooth has yet to give the yard much to celebrate, and with zero wins and zero places from four attempts, the record is as bare as it gets.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
That solitary fourth place stands out as the closest thing to a bright spot on an otherwise quiet CV. It shows the ability is there in flashes, but converting that into anything meaningful has proven elusive so far. Trained by Thomas Gibney out of Trim in Co. Meath, the horse is at least in capable hands — Gibney's yard has already sent out five winners this season, so the operation clearly knows how to get horses to perform when it matters.
The question now is whether Rough 'n' Smooth can find a race that suits well enough to finally get off the mark. Having raced just yesterday, the team clearly hasn't given up on finding that opportunity. Sometimes it just takes the right day.
