Betterluckthistime
There are horses that announce themselves with a bang, and then there is Betterluckthistime — a four-year-old whose name tells the whole story so far. One race into its career, it finished twelfth, which is about as far from the winner's enclosure as you can get. That was just yesterday, so the memory is fresh.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
To be fair, a single race tells you almost nothing about a horse. Every champion has a first day, and not every first day is pretty. What matters now is what comes next — and that is very much in the hands of trainer P J Rothwell, who operates out of Tinahely in County Wicklow and has had a productive season, sending out 36 winners. That is a yard that clearly knows how to get a horse ready to win. Betterluckthistime just has not been one of them yet.
The name, of course, is doing a lot of heavy lifting right now. Whoever chose it either had a sense of humour or a gift for prophecy. Either way, it suits the moment perfectly.
