Ever My Treasure is a 2-year-old in the early stages of a racing career, with one outing under its belt. The horse ran just a day ago and finished eleventh, offering little to suggest immediate promise on debut.
Henry De Bromhead's Knockeen yard in County Waterford has been firing on all cylinders this season with 110 winners, so the trainer clearly knows how to get horses ready for the racecourse — but not every runner clicks first time out, and at this age, one disappointing race tells you almost nothing about what a horse might become. The real test will come in the next few weeks as Ever My Treasure gets another chance and either begins to show some of the ability De Bromhead's team must believe it possesses, or continues to struggle. For now, it is simply a 2-year-old learning what racing is all about.
