Boleto

What makes Boleto's situation interesting is the gap between that early success and his recent inconsistency. A debut winner is always noteworthy, but the subsequent form suggests he has hit a patch where things simply haven't clicked. At two years old, there is still time for a young horse to develop and find his rhythm, and that single placing in his last race offers a hint that he may be steadying. He is trained by C G Cox at Lambourn, a yard in excellent form this season with 48 winners already, so there is no shortage of expertise on hand to work through the rough patches. Boleto remains active and racing regularly, which is the right approach for a horse at this stage — racing keeps him sharp and the experience will matter as he matures.
