The recent form tells the story. In the last six races, Court Alert has produced a second place, a third, a fourth, and scattered lower finishes. The second-place finish was most recent, coming just a day ago, which at least suggests the horse is running with some consistency and still being sent out by the yard who believe there's improvement to come. For a horse without a win to its name, finishing second is the kind of result that keeps hope alive in a yard.
Eve Johnson Houghton's operation at Blewbury has already sent out 42 winners this season, so Court Alert is in a stable with genuine form and experience. Whether the horse will eventually break through and win remains to be seen, but the trainer clearly has the nous to get horses competitive. For now, Court Alert is a runner that shows up, competes respectably, and occasionally finishes close—the sort of horse that asks for patience and another chance.
