Mr Badger is a two-year-old who made his racing debut just a day ago and finished fifth. That single run gives little away, but it marks the start of what could be a long career under trainer
Marcus Tregoning, whose yard has already sent out four winners this season. With only one race under his belt, there is no meaningful pattern to study yet — he simply ran, he didn't win, and now the real work begins. Young horses often need time to find their feet, and a fifth-place debut tells you almost nothing about where he might end up.
