Feach Amach

The recent form tells a more exciting story. Two wins from the last six races is a sharp upturn, and with a race just yesterday, Feach Amach is bang in form right now. The sequence of 4-4-1-4-6-1, read from most recent backwards, shows a horse that bookends its runs with wins — exactly the kind of pattern that keeps a trainer sending it out with confidence. Adam Nicol, based at Seahouses on the Northumberland coast, has had a productive season with 26 winners from his yard, and Feach Amach is clearly part of why.

The horse's strengths are well defined. On wet or muddy ground, it has won 2 of just 5 races — a 40% hit rate that is genuinely remarkable and suggests the stickier the surface, the more Feach Amach gets its head down. Over longer distances of two miles or more, the record reads 5 wins from 17 races, or roughly 1 in every 3 — and crucially, all five career wins have come at that range. This is a horse that needs to travel to find its best, and the stats back that up emphatically.

Sedgefield holds a special place in the story. Two wins from six races there make it the horse's happiest hunting ground, and it was on that track in November 2023 that Feach Amach recorded its first career victory. The most recent success came at Musselburgh in March 2026, so the winning thread is current and credible. Lorcan Murtagh has been the regular rider, winning 1 from 6 together — a modest number, but the partnership is clearly still developing.

Racing mainly at Class 5 level — the bread-and-butter end of the sport — Feach Amach wins around 1 in 9 at that grade (11%), which is honest rather than spectacular. But put it on wet ground, over a long trip, and the numbers change completely. That is the version of this horse worth watching.
