The recent form figures — 19, 10, 8, 9, 13, 10 — tell a story of a horse that has been running midfield at best and towards the back at worst. That 19th place finish in particular suggests at least one very difficult day at the races. The most encouraging number in there is the 8, which shows the horse can get closer to the action, but consistently finishing around 9th or 10th means there is still a significant gap between where Whats It All About is and where a winner needs to be.
It is worth keeping some perspective, though. P Roche's yard has sent out 8 winners already this season, which shows this is a operation that knows how to get a horse ready to win. The trainer has the tools. Whether Whats It All About can become one of those success stories is the open question. The horse raced just yesterday, so the yard — the team — are clearly keeping it busy and looking for the right opportunity. Sometimes with a young 3-year-old, it simply takes time to find their feet. The hope will be that the step forward from the 8th place finish is a sign of something building rather than a one-off.
