Found A Fifty

The biggest moment of that career came at Aintree on 13 April 2024, when Found A Fifty won a Class 1 race — one of the top races in Britain. Aintree is one of the most famous racecourses in the world, home to the Grand National, and winning there at the highest level is the kind of thing that defines a horse's legacy. It suggests Found A Fifty isn't just a consistent performer; it's a horse that can step up when the occasion demands it.

Closer to home, Found A Fifty has made Fairyhouse something of a personal hunting ground, winning 2 of its 3 races there. For context, that's a 67% win rate at that track — almost 2 wins from every 3 visits. That's not luck; that's a horse that knows where it likes to run. The partnership with jockey Jack Kennedy adds another layer of intrigue: together they've won 6 of 14 races, which works out at 43%, or nearly 3 wins from every 7 rides. That's an unusually productive combination.

Behind the horse stands Gordon Elliott's yard in Longwood, Co Meath — one of the powerhouses of Irish racing. Elliott's team has sent out 209 winners this season alone. That kind of operation doesn't carry passengers, and the fact that Found A Fifty has held a place in it across a nine-year career says plenty.

The recent form does give reason to pause. Found A Fifty hasn't finished in the top two in its last four runs, with a win at Cork in December 2025 now four months in the rearview mirror. Whether that represents a temporary dip or something more is the question worth watching. The horse last raced 18 days ago and is still active, so the answer may come sooner rather than later.
