A Penny A Hundred
A Penny A Hundred is a 7-year-old with modest claims on the racecourse, winning 3 of her 22 races—roughly 1 win for every 7 attempts. Trained by W. P. Mullins at Muine Bheag, he has been a regular runner for the yard, which has sent out 215 winners this season alone. Most of his rides have come with
Danny Mullins in the saddle, though that partnership has produced just 1 win from 8 races together, suggesting neither horse nor jockey has quite found the chemistry to spark something special.

🔍 Full analysis
Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
The most striking thing about A Penny A Hundred is how long it has been since she last won. Her most recent victory came at Ballinrobe on 13 September 2024—nearly two years ago now. That dry spell means her last six races have all ended in defeat, with her finishes reading 7-2-7-12-7-4. There is one glimmer in that sequence: a second-place finish two runs back, which at least shows she can still be competitive. Her three career wins have all come on normal ground, where she has won 2 of her 9 races in those conditions (22%), suggesting that wet or muddy ground is not her friend. She made her breakthrough at Sligo on 23 August 2023, but the wins have been sparse since then. Still active just a day ago, A Penny A Hundred remains a horse in search of rediscovering that winning touch.
