Baggot Street

That breakthrough came at Navan on 16 May 2026, just a fortnight ago, and it matters because it is the first time the horse has tasted winning. At three years old, with the season still in full swing, that first win can sometimes unlock something in a young horse. Whether it does here remains to be seen, but the timing is encouraging — Baggot Street raced again just yesterday, which suggests the team at John S O'Donoghue's yard in Curragh are keen to keep the momentum going while the horse is in form.

O'Donoghue's yard has sent out seven winners this season, which is a solid return and suggests the operation knows when a horse is ready to run. The short distances suit Baggot Street best — over five to six and a half furlongs, the record reads 1 win from 9 races, an 11% win rate, which is modest but meaningfully better than the overall picture. Recent form shows an eighth-place finish followed by that win, then three fifth-place finishes before that — not flashy, but consistent enough to suggest a horse that competes without embarrassing itself.

At three years old and with a first win now on the board, Baggot Street is a work in progress rather than a finished article. The career record is modest, but the recent activity and that Navan win give the yard something real to build on.
