That win came at Killarney just this week, on 13 July 2026, and it matters more than it might look on paper. Killarney is a tight, turning track where horses need to be nimble and switched on, and getting a first career win there suggests Chicago Moon is beginning to put things together. Before that, recent form had been patchy — a fifth, a seventh, and a ninth — so this victory looks like a step forward rather than a fluke.
The trainer is Henry De Bromhead, one of Ireland's most respected handlers, based at Knockeen in County Waterford. His yard has sent out 110 winners already this season, which tells you this is not a small operation running on hope — it is a serious, high-functioning team that knows how to get horses ready to win. When a yard of that quality keeps a horse in training after a slow start, it usually means they believe there is more to come.
Chicago Moon is one to keep an eye on over the next few months. The win is fresh, the trainer is confident, and at three years old there is every reason to think the best is still ahead.
