Gamigin

That recent form is the most interesting part of the story. The last six runs read 1-6-6-2-11-12, and while you have to scroll past a couple of rough outings, the key number is right at the front — a win at Wexford just this week on 16 May 2026. Before that, a second place. Gamigin clearly hit a flat spell in the middle of that sequence but has come back to life at exactly the right moment. The first career win came at Sligo back in June 2022, so this horse has been around the block and knows the job.

Noel C Kelly trains the horse from Draperstown in Co. Derry, and the yard has been in fine fettle this season — 14 winners sent out already, which is a genuinely productive campaign for a smaller operation. What's interesting about Gamigin's record is that the conditions don't seem to matter much: 2 wins from 11 races on normal ground (roughly 1 in 5) and an identical 2 wins from 11 races on wet or muddy ground. That kind of balance suggests a horse that travels and adapts rather than one that needs everything to fall perfectly into place.

The one puzzle in the file is the partnership with Jockey Jody McGarvey — five rides together and no wins yet, which is a blank sheet that doesn't quite reflect Gamigin's ability. These things happen in racing; the right combination doesn't always click immediately. But with the yard in form, a win banked this week, and a horse that races as regularly as this one, the next chapter looks more promising than the bare career numbers might suggest.
