La Tosca

She raced as recently as yesterday, which tells you she is fit, healthy, and being kept busy by her trainer. That trainer is Charlie Johnston, who operates out of Middleham Moor in North Yorkshire — one of the most productive yards in British racing this season, having sent out 128 winners already. When a yard is firing at that level, the horses around it tend to be well-prepared and well-placed, so La Tosca is at least in the right hands while she works out how to get her head in front.

The honest summary is that she has not yet shown enough to know exactly how good she might become. But she is young, active, and trained by someone who clearly knows how to win races. The next few months will be telling.
