Always Blue
Always Blue is still searching for a first career victory after five races without a win, though the three-year-old has shown enough consistency to suggest a breakthrough might not be far away. The horse has picked up two places from five outings — most recently finishing fourth just a day ago — and has been in the first four runners home in three of the last five races, which points to a horse capable of getting closer to the front than the bare record suggests.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

🔍 Full Analysis
TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
Trained by Harriet Bethell at her yard near Arnold in East Yorkshire, Always Blue runs for a stable that has already sent out 18 winners this season, so the horse is working alongside horses that know how to finish the job. That winning experience in the yard could prove valuable as Always Blue continues to develop. At three years old, there is still time for this horse to find the right race and conditions to break through. The pattern of recent form — two places in the last five starts — suggests it is competitive at its current level and knocking on the door. When it happens, it should not come as a surprise.
