The Shanachie
Three races, no wins, no places — The Shanachie has yet to give its supporters much to cheer about. The 5-year-old has finished sixth in each of its last two outings, and the run before that was an unfinished effort, making for a record that is about as bare as it gets at this stage of a career.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
Trained by John Dawson out of a small yard in Cleveland, North Yorkshire, The Shanachie is part of a modest operation that has still managed to send out two winners this season — so it is not as though the horses coming out of this stable cannot win. That makes The Shanachie's blank record feel more like a puzzle waiting to be solved than a dead end. Dawson will be hoping the penny drops sooner rather than later, because at three races in, time is not exactly on their side when it comes to finding some form.
Having raced just yesterday, this is clearly a horse that is being kept busy and given every opportunity to find its feet. Whether that persistence pays off remains to be seen.
