Arugam Bay
Arugam Bay has won exactly one race in the last 13 months, and that victory at Tipperary on July 2nd, 2025, marked the high point of an otherwise patchy career. The 3-year-old has picked up 2 wins from 8 races overall — a win rate of roughly 1 in 4 — but the recent form tells a story of inconsistency. In the last six outings, the horse has finished outside the frame four times, with only a couple of placed efforts mixed in alongside those blanks. That said, the most recent run came just a day ago, which means Arugam Bay remains an active runner and hasn't been shelved.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
The horse broke through for its first win at Fairyhouse back in June 2025, before adding another at Tipperary a month later. Since then, nothing has quite clicked. Chris Hayes, the horse's regular jockey, has partnered with it five times and managed just the one success, a 20% return that reflects the broader struggle to find consistent form. Arugam Bay is trained by Eddie and Patrick Harty at their Curragh yard in County Kildare, an operation that has sent out 16 winners across the 2024–25 season, so there is genuine form in the stable. Whether the horse can rediscover the spark that brought those early wins remains to be seen, but with racing only yesterday, the Hartys are clearly still trying to find the right opportunity to get it back in the winners' circle.
