Variance
Five races, no wins, no places — and finishing positions of 14th, 10th, 6th, 13th, and 7th tell a story that isn't getting better with time. At three years old, Variance is young enough that patience is still reasonable, but the current run of form offers little to encourage optimism. Not once across those five outings has this horse managed to get into the picture, and the most recent result — 14th — is the worst of the lot.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
There is, at least, something to be said for the people in its corner. The yard run by Dr Richard Newland and Jamie Insole, based in Elmbridge, Worcestershire, has sent out 49 winners already this season — a genuinely strong return that suggests the operation knows how to get horses performing. When a well-functioning yard keeps running a horse that hasn't troubled the judge once in five attempts, you have to assume they see something worth persisting with, even if that something isn't visible yet in the results.
Variance raced just yesterday, which means this is very much a story still being written. Whether the next chapter looks any different remains to be seen.
