Trained by Ed Walker out of Upper Lambourn in Berkshire, Forbidden Colours is at least in capable hands. Walker's yard has sent out 75 winners this season, which marks it as one of the more productive operations in the country right now, so the infrastructure and know-how to get this horse to the winner's enclosure is certainly there. Racing just yesterday, Forbidden Colours remains in active work, and with three runs under its belt the team will have a much clearer picture of where it fits and what conditions suit it best.
The honest truth is that finishing fourth, fifth, and fourth tells a pretty consistent story — good enough to be in the mix, not yet good enough to win. Whether that changes with a drop into easier company, a different track, or simply more experience is the question Ed Walker's team will be working through. At three years old, there's time on its side.
