Scent Of May
Scent Of May is a 4-year-old who has taken a while to find her moment, but when it came, she took it at Chepstow on 25 August 2025 — the one victory so far in a career of six races. That's a win rate of roughly 1 in 6, modest on paper, but the two placed finishes alongside it suggest a horse that is competitive without always converting. The recent form string — 5-9-1-4-2-9 — tells a slightly mixed story: a second and a win sandwiched between some less convincing efforts, which is the kind of pattern that keeps you watching without quite knowing what to expect next.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
She is trained by Henry Candy at Kingston Warren in Oxfordshire, a yard that has sent out 9 winners already this season. Candy is an experienced operator with a reputation for patient handling, and the fact that Scent Of May is still racing actively — she ran just one day ago — suggests the team believes there is more to come. Whether she can build on that Chepstow win, or whether it remains a one-off peak, is exactly the question her next few races need to answer.
