That's Enough

What stands out slightly is the recent upturn. After a string of mid-pack and tail-end finishes — including a 13th place that will have raised eyebrows in the yard — the horse ran second last time, suggesting something may be clicking into place. Whether that improvement holds is the question. One decent run in six is a flicker rather than a flame, but it is something to watch.

The training operation behind this horse is genuinely strong. Dr Richard Newland and Jamie Insole, based at Elmbridge in Worcestershire, have sent out 49 winners already this season — that is a yard in serious form, which matters. Good trainers tend to know when a horse is ready, and when it is not. The fact that That's Enough keeps getting its chance suggests the team see something worth persevering with. Whether the horse rewards that patience is another matter entirely, but it raced just yesterday, so answers may come sooner rather than later.
