Ronson

His recent form tells a story of inconsistency. Across his last five runs, most recent first, he has finished tenth, fourth, second, first, and seventh. There is a decent fourth-place finish and that second-place effort sandwiched between some well-beaten performances, which suggests he can produce competitive efforts but lacks the consistency you would want to see at this stage of his career. For a two-year-old still learning his trade, though, there are no alarm bells — young horses often take time to get their heads in front, and the fact that he has won at all puts him ahead of many of his age group.

Ronson is trained by Nigel Tinkler at Langton in North Yorkshire, a yard that has already sent out 37 winners this season, so there is clearly decent form in the stable. The trainer will be hoping that the win at Beverley is the breakthrough rather than a flash in the pan, and with the horse still actively racing, there will be opportunities ahead to find out whether he can build on that early success or whether he remains a moderate prospect. For now, he is one to keep an eye on but not one to get too excited about.
