Chichester Park

That win at Thurles — the only one on the card so far — came on 20 December 2025, and it remains the high point of the horse's career. Thurles is a tight, sharp track in County Tipperary that suits horses with a bit of grit and tactical awareness rather than raw brilliance, so winning there is a legitimate achievement, even if the wider racing world might not immediately sit up and take notice.

Chichester Park is trained by A.J. Martin at Summerhill in County Meath, a yard that has sent out 15 winners already this season — a solid, productive operation. The fact that this horse is still active, having raced just one day ago, suggests the team sees more to come. Whether the December win was a breakthrough moment or a one-off peak is the question worth watching. The two subsequent placed efforts — a second among the last three runs — hint that it is mixing genuine ability with occasional inconsistency, which is either frustrating or intriguing depending on how patient you are.

Eight races into a career, Chichester Park is still a horse finding its feet. But it has placed in four of those eight outings, which means it has finished in the money more often than not without quite delivering the win. For anyone following the yard, this is the kind of horse you keep a quiet eye on — not a star, but not done yet either.
