Carried With Love

Carried With Love is a five-year-old that has finally found its rhythm over the longer distances, winning twice in its last six races and posting a solid 30% win rate when asked to travel two miles or more. The horse broke its duck at Cork back in March 2025 and has since added two further victories, most recently at Limerick just this week. That early October win shows the horse is still sharp and competitive, even if recent form reads a touch inconsistent — a seventh-place finish sandwiched between a pair of top-3 efforts in the run before last.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
TrackLab's detailed breakdown

Jonathan Sweeney's yard at Kildinan has got this horse figured out. With only three wins from eighteen career races, Carried With Love sits at a 17% win rate overall, but that number climbs to 30% when Sweeney pitches it into longer races. The trainer has sent out eight winners this season, and this horse's recent Limerick success suggests it remains a genuine asset in that team. What makes Carried With Love interesting is not spectacular talent but honest reliability — it wins roughly one in every three times it gets the trip it loves, and it regularly finishes in the money. Of its eighteen races, thirteen have ended in a win or a top-3 finish. That consistency at distance is exactly the kind of profile trainers and owners love: not a star, but a genuine earner that knows its job and delivers.
