It is a small sample size, of course, but a debut win is never nothing. Most young horses take several races just to figure out what is expected of them, so a horse that wins first time out is already showing you something. Where Love Lives has done exactly that, and the racing world will be watching closely to see what comes next.
The horse is trained by Kevin Ryan at his yard in Hambleton, North Yorkshire, and the operation is clearly in fine form — 45 winners sent out already this season is a serious number, the kind of tally that tells you this is not a yard guessing its way through the year. Ryan is an experienced handler of young horses in particular, so Where Love Lives has landed in capable hands at what could be the start of something worth following.
