Sweet Honey B

The horse's recent form—a second place just a day ago, followed by a couple of third-place finishes before that—shows it remains competitive and active. Class 4 races have been the typical battleground, though here too the wins have remained elusive: zero victories from four attempts at that level. Trainer Clive Boultbee-Brooks, based at Woolhope in Herefordshire, has had a solid season overall with nine winners sent out from the yard, which suggests the stable is capable of getting horses into form. Whether Sweet Honey B has what it takes to join that list remains an open question, but the pattern of recent placings indicates the horse is still mixing it with its peers and is far from washed up. For a horse in its ninth year of life, consistent activity and the occasional frame finish represent a respectable outcome.
