Bynx

There is a horse in Ireland that has figured out exactly where it wants to be, and that place is Tramore. Bynx, an 8-year-old trained by Martin Hassett out of Burnchurch in County Tipperary, has built a modest but quietly impressive career record of 5 wins from 53 races — roughly 1 in every 10 — but strip away every other track and a very different picture emerges. At Tramore alone, Bynx has won 3 of 8 races, meaning it wins there at a rate of nearly 1 in every 3. That is the kind of number that makes people pay attention.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

The overall career record tells one story — 5 wins, 16 places, 53 races — but context matters. A horse that has found a track it genuinely loves is not the same as one that simply keeps turning up and finishing midfield. Bynx first won at Tramore back in June 2023, and has clearly never forgotten the place. The most recent win came just this week, on 7 July 2026, confirming this is not a horse running on fumes or nostalgia. It is still competing and still winning.

The recent form tells an interesting tale too. Out of the last 6 races, Bynx has won 2 — a win rate of 1 in 3 over that stretch, which is well above its career average. The form reads 1-8-8-–-6-1, which means two wins bookending a rougher patch in between. That kind of pattern suggests a horse that finds its level and can still produce when conditions suit.

On the ground, Bynx particularly enjoys normal conditions, winning 3 of 16 races on a standard surface — almost 1 in every 5. The regular partnership with jockey Wayne Hassett has yet to produce a win together from 10 attempts, which is one of those statistical curiosities that racing occasionally throws up, given how well the horse has performed overall. Martin Hassett's yard has been in good form this season with 10 winners sent out, so the operation is clearly functioning well.

Bynx is never going to be a household name — 9% across 53 races is a career built on consistency rather than brilliance — but as a course specialist who keeps delivering at Tramore, it has carved out something genuinely its own.
