Something Simple
Nine races into its career and Something Simple is still waiting for that first win. The six-year-old has managed just one placed finish from those nine outings, and recent form makes for grim reading — tenth, three non-completions, then eighth, fifth, and sixth in the runs before that. There is no sugarcoating it: this is a horse that has found winning beyond it so far.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
That said, Something Simple raced just yesterday, so whatever happened last time out is fresh. Trained by John Joseph Hanlon at his yard in Bagenalstown, Co Carlow, the horse remains active and in work, which at least suggests the team still sees something worth persisting with.
Hanlon's yard has sent out 11 winners already this season, so there is clearly ability in the stable. Whether Something Simple can tap into that winning formula remains to be seen — but with no victories from 9 attempts, the horse will need to find significant improvement to get off the mark.
