Terre De Vega

The horse is trained by John Andrew Kinsella at Rathdrum in County Wicklow. Kinsella's yard has sent out five winners this season, so the trainer clearly knows how to get horses to the line. For Terre De Vega, however, the breakthrough has not yet come. Over its last six races, form has been mixed: a second place was followed by three disappointing efforts — an eighth, a fourth, and a sixteenth — before a tenth-place finish most recently. That second-place finish remains the closest the horse has come to winning, suggesting there is something there to work with, but consistency remains the issue. Terre De Vega will need to string together some steady performances and find a bit more sharpness if it is to finally get its head in front.
