The overall record reads two wins and two places from six races, which works out at winning 1 in every 3 — a strong ratio at this stage of a career. That kind of consistency matters. Plenty of young horses manage one decent run and then disappear back into the pack, but Kakirra has now finished in the first three in four of her six outings. That is not a fluke; that is a horse who keeps showing up.
Behind her stands Ollie Sangster, training out of Marlborough in Wiltshire. Sangster's yard has sent out 42 winners already this season — a serious tally that tells you this is an operation that knows how to place horses well and get them to the track in form. The back-to-back wins for Kakirra in the space of a week look less like luck and more like a yard that spotted the right opportunities and took them.
With just six races behind her, Kakirra is still learning her trade, and that is arguably the most exciting part. She is already winning at a rate that more experienced horses would envy, and she raced just yesterday, meaning the yard are clearly keeping her busy while she is in the mood. Whether she steps up in class from here will be the interesting question — but right now, she is one of the more compelling young horses to keep an eye on.
