The recent form tells a mixed story. A second-place finish sits in there, which is encouraging, but so do several seventh-place efforts, and Saint Vic has gone the last six races without winning. Raced just yesterday, this is a horse still very much in the mix — trainer Anthony Day clearly hasn't given up on finding the right opportunity.
Day's yard has sent out two winners this season, so it is a small but functioning operation, and Saint Vic has been a regular partner for jockey James Turner, the pair having raced together six times without a win between them. At some point, the yard tend to ask whether a change of rider might unlock something — though equally, familiarity and patience sometimes pay off in the end.
The horse typically competes at Class 4 level, which sits in the middle tier of British racing — not the glamour end of the sport, but genuinely competitive. Winning even once at this level would be no small thing, and the fact that Saint Vic has come second twice from 14 attempts suggests the ability is there, at least in flashes. Whether it ever translates into a win is the question the team at Anthony Day's yard is still trying to answer.
