Cock And Bull
Cock And Bull is a 5-year-old who knows how to find the winner's circle on his day. With five wins from 30 races, he has won roughly one in every six outings — a respectable record for a horse competing mostly in Class 4 races, where the standard is solid but not elite. What makes him interesting is how selective his form can be. On fast, dry ground, he comes alive: he has won 2 of his 6 races on those surfaces, a 33% win rate that doubles his overall record. He is also a course specialist at Sandown Park, where he has landed 2 wins from just 5 races, suggesting he has learned how to handle that particular track.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis
Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
Trained by Emmet Mullins at Bagenalstown in County Carlow, Cock And Bull has been racing actively — he was last out just a day ago — and his form over the past six races shows the sort of inconsistency you often see in horses around this level. A 20th place finish was followed by a win, then third, 11th, seventh, and fifth. When he is firing, he clearly has the ability; his last victory came at Galway on 29 July 2026, around two months ago, which suggests he is still competitive. He tends to run best when partnered with Hector Crouch, the jockey who has steered him to 2 wins from 7 rides together — a notably strong partnership at 29%. For a horse who has earned five wins across a 30-race career, finding the right conditions and the right rider can be the difference between a good day and an ordinary one.
