Blackberry Bold
Blackberry Bold is a two-year-old yet to taste victory, but there are quiet reasons to stay interested. In two races so far, the horse has finished third on both occasions — consistent, if not quite there yet, and a pattern that suggests it is learning rather than struggling.

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
What gives the story a little more colour is who is doing the training. Dr Richard Newland and Jamie Insole, based at Elmbridge in Worcestershire, have sent out 51 winners this season — that is a yard in serious form, and horses from that setup tend to improve with experience. Having a young horse place in both its races early in its career is not a disaster; plenty of good horses have taken time to figure out how to win.
With just two races to its name and a third place as recently as yesterday, Blackberry Bold is very much a work in progress. The next run will tell us a lot more.
