Stily
Stily is a six-year-old that has yet to break through for a win, despite eighteen attempts on the track. The horse has picked up five places—enough to show it belongs in a race and can finish in the money—but that elusive first victory remains out of reach. Over the past six races, the form has been mixed: a fourth, a sixth, another sixth, then a second-place finish followed by a third. That second place came just over a week ago, suggesting Stily is capable of running well on its day, even if it cannot quite get over the line.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
Sean O'Keeffe has been Stily's regular partner in the saddle, riding the horse nine times without a win between them. Trainer Michael J McDonagh runs his yard from Shannon in County Clare, and while his operation has produced five winners already this season, Stily has not been the one to deliver them. The horse is active right now—it raced just a day ago—which means the yard are still hopeful of finding a race where things click into place. For a horse at this stage of its career with this record, that breakthrough moment would matter. Until then, Stily remains a horse that shows flashes of form without quite managing to capitalize on them.
