The form figures tell an interesting story. Back in its third and fourth races, Jowalla was finishing third and second — close enough to smell the winner's enclosure — but the last three outings have seen it slip back to sixth, seventh, and ninth. That's a horse that looked to be building toward something and then, for whatever reason, couldn't maintain that momentum. The most recent race was just yesterday, so this is a horse very much in the thick of its season right now.
With no wins from six races, Jowalla hasn't yet justified the faith being placed in it by the Dascombe yard, but a 3-year-old with three placed finishes isn't without merit. The question is whether those earlier encouraging runs were a ceiling or a starting point — and at this stage of the season, with a trainer who clearly knows how to get horses winning, there's every reason to think the answer is still to come.
