Centurion's Sister

What makes her interesting now is the form she is showing. Over her last six races she has been consistently placed—two seconds, two thirds, a third, and that win—suggesting she is running into better form at exactly the right moment. With Danny McMenamin in the saddle for most of her races so far (0 wins from 8 rides together), the partnership has not yet yielded a winner, though her victory this week came under different colours. Nicky Richards trains her from Greystoke in Cumbria, a yard that has sent out 39 winners already this season, so she is in the hands of someone who knows how to get horses home. At Class 4 level—the bread and butter of British racing—she has yet to break through (0 wins from 5 tries), but her recent form suggests that might not be far away.
