What is worth watching is how recently she has been running. She raced just one day ago, which means she is clearly fit, in good form physically, and her team are keeping her busy — a sign that Daniel Steele's yard believes there is something worth chasing with her. Steele, based down in Henfield in West Sussex, has sent out four winners already this season, so the operation knows how to get a horse to the line first. The question is whether Lady McC can be the next one to join that tally.
The most honest read of her career so far is that she is a work in progress. She has placed once from six races — meaning her team have had one moment of genuine encouragement to hold onto — but the overall picture is of a horse still searching for the right opportunity. Whether that comes down to the conditions, the competition level, or simply needing a little more time to fill into herself, only the next few races will tell. For now, she is a horse to keep an eye on rather than one to lean on.
