She races almost exclusively at Class 5 level, which is the entry point of British racing — the kind of races where horses are finding their feet and owners are still learning what their horse is capable of. Going 0 from 6 at that level is frustrating, but the silver lining is that she keeps finishing close enough to suggest the win is there if the stars align. Her regular partnership with jockey Dougie Costello has produced five of those seven runs together, and while they are still waiting for that breakthrough, the consistency of the pairing suggests the team believe they are close.
She is trained by Steph Hollinshead out of Upper Longdon in Staffordshire, a yard that has sent out six winners already this season — proof that the stable knows how to get horses over the line. Spirit Of Jenny raced just yesterday, which means she is right in the thick of an active campaign. The fact that she keeps being pointed at races suggests her trainer sees something worth persevering with. In racing, a horse that finishes second and third regularly is not a lost cause — it is a horse one good day away from breaking through. Whether Spirit Of Jenny can finally convert that promise into a win is the question her team will be desperate to answer.
