Bite That
At ten years old, Bite That has seen plenty of racetracks and knows the game well — but winning has never come easily. In 42 races, this horse has crossed the line first just twice, a win rate of roughly 1 in every 21 races. That said, there have been 13 placed finishes along the way, meaning Bite That has given its the yard something to cheer about in more than a third of its outings overall. It is not a horse that dominates, but it is one that keeps showing up.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

🔍 Full Analysis
TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
The two wins tell an interesting story on their own. The first came at Tramore in August 2022, and the second — the most recent — arrived at Wexford on St Patrick's Day 2025, which is about as memorable a date as you could ask for. That Wexford win now sits 15 months in the past, and the last six runs have produced nothing better than a third place, with a couple of blank results mixed in. The most recent outing was just yesterday, so this is a horse very much in the thick of its season right now.
Patrick J Flynn trains Bite That from a yard in Carrick-On-Suir, County Waterford, and the team has been in decent form this season with 10 winners already sent out. G B Noonan is the jockey most associated with the horse, riding it in 9 of its races and partnering it to 1 of those wins — a win rate together of roughly 1 in every 9 rides, which is actually well above Bite That's overall average. Whether that combination clicks again remains to be seen, but a horse that managed to win as recently as last March, at the age of nine, is clearly not done yet.
