The trainer behind Tarrant is Richard Hannon, operating out of Herridge in Wiltshire, and the scale of that operation is genuinely impressive. The yard has sent out 118 winners already this season — that is not a yard with the odd decent horse tucked away, that is a production line of talent. When a stable is firing at that volume, having your name above the door at Hannon's means you are surrounded by quality and expertise every single day. Tarrant raced just yesterday and is very much an active, in-form project right now.
Two races is too small a sample to draw firm conclusions, but the pattern so far — third, third — suggests a horse that competes honestly without yet having the finishing kick to go all the way. Whether that changes with experience, a different trip, or different ground conditions remains to be seen. What is clear is that Hannon's team have a live, lightly-raced 3-year-old on their hands, and with 118 winners on the board this season, they clearly know what to do with one.
