Across her full career of 20 races, Colleen Danu has won 3 times and placed a further 6, meaning she has rewarded anyone watching her with a result — a win or a place — nearly half the time. Three wins from 20 races works out at roughly 1 in every 7 outings, which is a solid return at this level. Her first career win came at Gowran Park back in November 2024, and she has clearly developed into a more consistent performer since then.
Her recent form makes for interesting reading. Going back through her last six races — most recent first — she has posted a win, a second, a fourth, a seventh, a second, and a twelfth. That seventh and twelfth suggest she has an off day in her occasionally, but the win and the placed efforts around them show she is far more often a competitive force than not. She raced just yesterday, so she is right in the thick of an active campaign.
She is trained by Patrick T Foley, operating out of Bagenalstown in County Carlow. The yard has sent out 12 winners already this season, which tells you this is not a small or sleepy operation — Foley clearly knows how to place his horses and get results. With Colleen Danu, the formula seems straightforward enough: get her back to Clonmel, and the chances of a big run go up considerably.
