Thenandnow
Thenandnow has won just once from her ten races, but that victory at The Curragh four months ago feels like the beginning of something rather than a false dawn. The 3-year-old has shown real promise over shorter distances — she has won one of her five races between five and six and a half furlongs, and at that trip she is winning roughly one in five times she races, which is the sort of win rate that catches a trainer's eye. Her recent form has been patchy, with a third-place finish just yesterday followed by a fifth, two thirds, and a twelfth before that, but the consistency of a placing in four of her last six runs suggests she is competitive when conditions suit.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
Mrs John Harrington's yard at Moone, in County Kildare, has sent out 53 winners this season and clearly sees something worth nurturing in Thenandnow. Harrington believes the filly has strengthened considerably since her debut, and when she broke through at The Curragh in April, handling the soft ground with ease, the trainer spotted a horse learning how to race. Shane Foley, her most regular jockey, has ridden her five times and won once — a 20% win rate together that is double her career average. Foley felt she improved when something else in the race took her along, suggesting she responds well to competition and may yet develop into a more forceful racer as experience accumulates. The plan is to run her over six furlongs, the distance at which her speed is most likely to count, and she may well reach a small but meaningful audience at a fillies' race next.
