The real story lies in Tumishi's recent form. After some mixed results through September, the horse has found a winning rhythm this week, taking a race at Nottingham on 1 October. That followed an earlier victory at Ffos Las at the end of August, so two wins in the last five races suggests the horse is beginning to understand what racing is about. Just yesterday, Tumishi raced again and finished first, showing it has the appetite to run frequently and the engine to back that up. A horse that runs every few days and keeps improving is one worth watching.
James Fanshawe's Newmarket yard has been prolific this season with 44 winners already, so Tumishi is being trained by someone who knows how to develop young horses. At two years old with two wins under its belt and that recent victory still fresh, this is a horse that looks like it could be a regular in the winners' enclosure as it gains experience and maturity.
