Where Love Lives

Trained by Donnacha Aidan O'Brien at Ballyroe in County Tipperary, Where Love Lives belongs to a yard in excellent form this season — they've already sent out 31 winners. The horse broke through at Thirsk on 10 April, and most recently won at Sandown Park on 28 May. The fact that it's still racing hard, with a run just yesterday, suggests the team sees more to come from it this year.

The real insight into this horse lies in what it tells us about ground preference. On normal conditions, Where Love Lives has won 2 of its 3 races — a 67% win rate, better than two wins for every three attempts. That's the kind of record that tells the yard exactly what surfaces to target. For a two-year-old still learning its trade, having that clarity about what suits it is valuable. With two wins from five races and the form trending upward, Where Love Lives looks like one to keep an eye on as the season develops.
