Top Marks
Top Marks is a 2-year-old still waiting to break her duck after finishing seventh in her debut race just a day ago. Trained by
Philip McBride at Newmarket, the horse has everything ahead of him — one run is barely enough time to draw any conclusions about what he might become.

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
McBride's yard has been sending out winners regularly this season, with 12 victories so far, which suggests Top Marks at least has the benefit of experienced hands. How the horse bounces back from that opening defeat will tell us far more than a single seventh-place finish ever could. Two-year-olds are often wayward and unpredictable early on, and one run tells you almost nothing except that the horse has shown up and run. What matters now is whether Top Marks comes out of that experience ready to improve, and whether McBride can find him a race where he belongs.
