Candleford Green
There is something quietly promising about a 4-year-old that wins on just its second visit to a track, and Candleford Green did exactly that at Gowran Park back in October 2025. That win — the horse's only one to date from five races — came seven months ago, and while the recent form figures of 7-1-7-6-2 suggest things have been a little inconsistent since, there are two placed finishes in those five outings, giving a career record of one win and two places overall. That works out at winning 1 in every 5 races, which is a respectable enough ratio at this stage of a young horse's career.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
What lends Candleford Green some real interest is the stable behind it. Willie Mullins, based at Muine Bheag in County Carlow, is not just a good trainer — he is one of the most dominant forces in jump racing, and his yard has sent out 220 winners already this season alone. That is a staggering number, and it means that when Mullins keeps a horse in training and keeps running it, there is usually a plan in place. Horses do not stay in a yard producing at that level without someone believing there is more to come.
With the horse having raced just one day ago, it is clearly in active campaign mode. The question now is whether Gowran Park — the scene of that sole victory — might come back around on the calendar and give Candleford Green another chance to prove that October win was no fluke.
