Stytch is a two-year-old just beginning his racing life, having made a single appearance on track a day ago. He finished sixth in that debut run, which is the kind of result that tells you very little except that he was there and racing alongside horses of similar age and experience. With
Alan King's yard at Wroughton firing in winners regularly this season—57 already—there is clearly a trainer in form, and young horses sometimes need a race or two under their belt before they show what they can do. Whether Stytch will develop into something worth watching remains entirely to be seen, but his story has only just begun.
