Taj Mahal Palace
Taj Mahal Palace is a two-year-old still hunting for a breakthrough after three races without a win or a place finish. The horse has struggled to find its feet early on, posting results of 7th, 5th, and 7th across its last three outings. Trained by
Brian Ellison at Norton in North Yorkshire, the horse is a recent runner — it raced just a day ago — so its the yard are clearly keen to get it racing regularly and gather experience.

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
Ellison's yard has been in fine form this season, with 43 winners to their name, which suggests Taj Mahal Palace is in capable hands. Young horses often need time to settle and understand what racing demands of them, and three races is still early days in a two-year-old's education. The fact that the trainer is running the horse frequently shows confidence that it will develop into something useful with more miles on the clock. Whether Taj Mahal Palace clicks and starts to deliver is now a matter of time and the right race conditions.
