Way With Words

Way With Words is a four-year-old horse trained by J P Dempsey at Carbury in County Kildare. The horse made its debut just over a month ago and finished second, showing enough promise to suggest there is a race to be won. With only one run under its belt, Way With Words remains very much a work in progress, but that early placing is a genuine positive for a horse stepping into competitive racing for the first time.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
TrackLab's detailed breakdown

Dempsey's yard is in good form this season, having sent out 16 winners already, which suggests the horse is in capable hands. The trainer knows how to get horses ready and how to spot an opportunity, and Way With Words will benefit from being part of an operation firing on all cylinders. The gap of 27 days since that debut run indicates the horse is still active and being prepared carefully — there is no rush, just thoughtful training. For a horse that has never won a race yet, finishing second first time out is the kind of foundation you want. The next step is to find a race where it can break through.
