Electric Beauty

Start with Leopardstown. Electric Beauty has raced there four times and won twice — that is a 50% win rate at a single track, which is extraordinary in a sport where winning 1 in 5 anywhere is considered a good outcome. The most recent of those wins came just this week, on 11 June 2026, confirming this is not a horse living off past glories. It is sharp, it is current, and it is clearly in form — the last six runs read 1-2-3-4-12-2, meaning five of the last six have been placed finishes, with one blip sandwiched in between. That kind of consistency around the frame is exactly what you want to see.

Then there is the wet ground factor. When the rain comes and the ground turns soft and heavy, Electric Beauty transforms. On wet ground it has won 2 of just 6 races — that is 1 in 3, a win rate that would make many trainers dream. Pair that with its preferred distance of one mile one furlong to one mile two furlongs — where it has won 3 from 11, or just over 1 in 4 — and you have a horse with a clearly defined sweet spot: a mile-ish trip, soft ground, and ideally Leopardstown on the horizon.

Behind the scenes, trainer Michael Mulvany operates out of Kells in County Meath, and his yard has hit 20 winners already this season — a sign of a yard in good health. Regular jockey Wesley Joyce has been aboard for 14 of those 25 races together, winning 2 of them (14%), and the partnership seems to be building understanding at exactly the right moment. Electric Beauty first announced itself at Leopardstown back in July 2025, and the fact it has returned to win there again less than a year later suggests this is a horse that rewards patience. Keep an eye on the weather forecast.
