Zheleznaya Dama

The mare wins roughly 1 in every 10 races and finishes in the frame (first, second, or third) about 4 times in 10 attempts. Her recent form shows some promise: a place, then a win, then another place and a fifth, before bouncing back with another place last time out. She clearly has ability — that breakthrough victory at Naas proves she can beat her rivals — but consistency has been elusive so far. At three years old, she is still learning her trade, and Naas appears to suit her, having hosted both her sole win and her early career test. Whether she can find that winning touch again, or build on her placed efforts, will define the rest of her season.
