The Flint yard has been in decent form this season, sending out 7 winners, which gives some reason for optimism. At the level where Runamara has done most of its racing — Class 5, which sits towards the lower end of the racing ladder — the horse has won 1 from 4, a rate of 25%, or roughly 1 in every 4 attempts at that tier. That is actually a respectable return at its best level, and it suggests Runamara is competitive when the conditions suit.
The recent run of form tells a more complicated story, though. The last six results read 6th, 7th, 12th, 8th, 5th, 2nd going back from the most recent, meaning the horse has not won in any of those six outings and has slipped as far back as 12th. There have been two placed efforts mixed in — a second and a fifth — which at least suggests Runamara is not out of its depth, just struggling to find the winning thread. Whether that September win at Bath proves to be a turning point or a one-off highlight is the question the next few races will answer.
