Thankyou Baroness

What stands out is her preference for the mile-and-three-to-mile-and-four-furlong range, where she has won once from five attempts — a respectable 20 per cent win rate over that distance. It is telling that when the race stretches beyond that sweet spot, or when she steps up in class, things tend to fall apart: she has failed to win in three attempts at Class 4 level, the sort of races that ought to suit a horse of her modest record. Her recent form is unremarkable. In her last six races, she has managed two third-place finishes but otherwise found the top three elusive, posting an eighth-place finish just a day ago. It has been sixteen months since that sole victory at Doncaster, and she remains active on the track, which suggests her trainer, Ilka Gansera-Leveque of Newmarket, still sees potential worth pursuing. Whether that potential translates into another win is another matter entirely.
