Tall Trees
Tall Trees has made a bright start to racing life despite still learning the ropes. The two-year-old has won once and placed three times from six races, winning roughly one in every five outings so far. Last week, the horse claimed its maiden victory at Sandown Park on 29 August, and has raced again since — most recently finishing sixth just a day ago. That quick turnaround suggests the yard is confident enough in the horse's fitness and constitution to keep it active rather than rest it after a win.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
The real insight into Tall Trees comes from looking at what distances suit it best. Over middle distances of seven furlongs to a mile, the horse has won once from four races—a 25 per cent success rate that is notably sharper than its overall record. This is the range where Tall Trees looks most likely to strike again. Brian Meehan, who trains from Manton in Wiltshire, has sent out 12 winners already this season and knows how to get the best from his two-year-olds. With a recent win on the board and clear evidence of what trips suit it, Tall Trees has genuine promise at a level where many of its peers are still finding their feet.
