Battle Hymn
There are horses that take time to find their feet, and at three years old, Battle Hymn is still very much in that category. Two races in, the
David Simcock-trained horse has yet to trouble the judge — no wins, no places, and finishes of 13th and 4th to its name. That fourth place most recently is at least a step in the right direction, even if there is plenty of ground still to make up.

What Battle Hymn does have going for it is the yard behind it. David Simcock operates out of Newmarket, the spiritual home of British flat racing, and his team has been in sharp form this season — 39 winners and counting. A trainer firing at that rate knows how to place a horse, and the fact that Battle Hymn is still being aimed at races suggests Simcock sees something worth developing. Patience is part of the job at a yard like this.
Two runs is a very small sample. Plenty of horses take three, four, even five races before the penny drops. With a trainer in form and a season still ahead of it, Battle Hymn's story is far from written.
