Fleur In The Park
Fleur In The Park is a seven-year-old horse that has finally found some consistency in the saddle. The recent form tells the story: two wins in the last six races, including a victory just this week at Gowran Park. That kind of back-to-back winning form — a first-place finish followed closely by another win — suggests the horse has found a rhythm again after some slower periods earlier in its career.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis
Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
The numbers bear this out. Over 17 races, Fleur In The Park has won 4 times and finished second or third in 13 others, which works out to roughly 1 win in every 4 races. That is a respectable win rate for a horse at this level, and the consistency of placings (finishing in the money more often than not) shows it is reliably competitive. The first win came at Roscommon in September 2023, suggesting it took time to find the winning formula, but once it did, the horse has maintained that edge.
Most of Fleur In The Park's racing happens under jockey Cian Quirke, though their partnership has not always clicked — Quirke has ridden the horse eleven times and won twice, a modest rate of roughly 1 in 5. That suggests there may be other riders or different course setups where the horse thrives. Trainer A. Slattery, based at Thurles in County Tipperary, has sent out 62 winners this season, so the yard is clearly in strong form. The combination of a recently active, well-placed horse and a trainer running a hot string makes Fleur In The Park one to keep an eye on in the coming weeks.
