The real clue to We Dare To Dream's best chance lies in the distance. Over 7 furlongs to a mile, the horse has won 2 of 8 races — a 25% win rate. That is genuinely strong form and worth noting. Drop it into the wrong trip or the wrong grade, and the record flatters to deceive. There have been five attempts at Class 3 racing, the kind of competitive middle-ground where decent horses often grind it out, and we Dare To Dream has won none of them. The horse tends to fare better in less demanding company, which is useful intelligence for anyone watching the entries.
Trainer David O'Meara, based at Upper Helmsley in North Yorkshire, has been prolific this season with 101 winners — a yard with genuine firing power. Daniel Tudhope, who has partnered We Dare To Dream in five races, has won one of them, a 20% win rate with this particular horse, suggesting at least a comfortable working relationship. Whether the next win comes soon or remains frustratingly out of reach, We Dare To Dream has enough in the locker to warrant keeping an eye on when it turns up at the right distance and the right level. Right now, though, it feels like a horse waiting for the right race.
