Sweet Distraction
Sweet Distraction is a two-year-old horse still finding its feet on the track. The horse has had three races so far without a win or a place, finishing well down the field each time. Most recently, it ran 13 lengths behind the winner just a day ago, before that finishing fifth, and before that eleventh. These are early days—young horses often take several outings to understand what racing is about and to settle into the competitive environment—but the pattern so far suggests Sweet Distraction needs time to develop.Based on TrackLab's analysis
