Fraher Field

His recent form tells a familiar story of a horse searching for another winning moment. In his last six races he has managed a second place and a couple of other placings, but mostly found himself out of the frame entirely. Last time out, just a day ago, he finished twelfth — a reminder that at this level, and at this stage of his career, finding another win is proving genuinely difficult. The yard sending him out, John E & Thomas Kiely's operation, has managed only two winners across the whole season, which gives you some sense of the challenge involved. For a horse with just one win in the bank from thirteen attempts, and now waiting thirteen months between victories, Fraher Field looks to be exactly what he appears: a moderate performer who touched the highest point of his abilities once, and is yet to return there.
