Chica Guerrera

Her best distance is over 7 furlongs to a mile, where she has won 1 from 3 races — a win rate of 33%, or roughly 1 in every 3 attempts at that trip. That is a noticeably stronger return than her overall record suggests, and it points to a horse that has a real preference. Get the distance right, and she becomes a much more interesting proposition.

Her most recent win came at Tramore on 16 August 2025, about eight months ago now. Tramore is a tight, turning track on the south coast of Ireland that suits a certain type of horse — one that can settle and balance through bends rather than relying on raw speed. The fact that she won there suggests she is adaptable and switched-on rather than a horse that only fires on a straight gallop. Her first career win, back in October 2024 at Gowran Park, followed a similar pattern — another track that rewards an intelligent, well-rounded horse over a flat, galloping circuit.

Her recent form reads 1–blank–3–2–3–blank (most recent last), meaning two runs where she did not place, sandwiched around a handful of solid efforts. She raced just one day ago, which means she is very much an active, working horse right now rather than one being managed back from a lay-off.

She is trained by Mark Fahey out of his yard at Cloneygath in County Kildare — a team that has sent out 23 winners this season, which puts them firmly in the productive, mid-sized trainer bracket. With an overall win rate of around 15% — roughly 2 wins from every 13 races — Chica Guerrera is not a superstar, but she is the kind of reliable, honest horse that keeps a yard ticking over and gives her the yard something to look forward to every time the entries come out.
