Delusional
Nine races into its career and still waiting for that first win, Delusional is a 3-year-old that has shown enough to suggest it belongs on a racecourse, but not quite enough to suggest it can get to the front of one. Three places from nine races means it has finished in the top three on a third of its outings — a sign that it is competitive, just not quite competitive enough when it matters most.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

🔍 Full Analysis
TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
The recent form tells an honest story. A couple of encouraging third-place finishes are sandwiched around some more modest efforts — a tenth and a pair of sevenths — and the pattern is of a horse that can run well on its day without ever threatening to win. That said, it raced just one day ago, so whatever form it is carrying right now, it is carrying it fresh.
Delusional is trained by Peter Maher at his yard in Donore, Co Kildare. It has been a quiet season for the stable, with just one winner sent out so far, which means this horse finding its winning moment would be a notable boost for the team. At three years old, there is still time for things to click — but on what we have seen so far, Delusional will need to find something it has not yet shown.
