Trained by Matthew J Smith out of Kilmessan in County Meath, Sekifi raced just yesterday, so the yard — the yard, at least — clearly still believe there's something worth running for. Smith's operation has sent out 8 winners this season, which shows the stable knows how to get a horse into the winner's enclosure. The question is whether Sekifi can be one of them.
Recent form reads 5th, 15th, 6th, 8th, and 18th in the last five completed races. The 6th is the closest thing to encouragement in that sequence, but the 18th finish is a reminder of just how wide the range can be. Fourteen runs without a win or a place is a tough record to look past, but the fact that Sekifi keeps appearing in the entries suggests the team hasn't given up yet.
