Travellers Girl
Travellers Girl got off the mark this week at Ripon, finally breaking through after showing real promise in her first few races. The two-year-old has been placed three times from her six outings so far—a respectable record that suggested a breakthrough was coming—and she delivered it on 31 August when she got her nose in front at the same track. That win gives her a career tally of one victory and three places, meaning she finishes in the first three about two-thirds of the time she races.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
Roger Fell's yard at Nawton in North Yorkshire has been in fine form this season with 25 winners to their name, and Travellers Girl is proof of the sort of consistent horsemanship Fell brings to his two-year-olds. Her recent form shows what you'd expect from a young horse still finding her feet—a win last time out, fourth and third places before that—and she's active enough to be considered a genuine prospect at this stage. For a two-year-old who wins roughly 1 in every 6 races, that debut victory at Ripon has the feel of a horse who knows where the finish line is and won't be a stranger to the winner's enclosure as she gets more racing under her belt.
