Spacewoman

Henry Candy's yard at Kingston Warren in Oxfordshire knows how to train a competitive horse, and Spacewoman is getting the benefit of a stable that has sent out eight winners already this season. The challenge is that she typically races at lower levels — Class 5 company — where she has yet to find the winner's circle, though her recent top-3 finishes suggest she is becoming a more reliable finisher. It has been four months since that Newmarket success, but the fact that she was racing just a day ago shows she remains active and in work. For a horse still learning the game at three years old, a win rate of roughly 1 in 12 races might seem thin, but the upward trend in her finishing positions tells a different story. She is knocking on the door.
