God Of Thunder

The most striking thing about God Of Thunder is its form at Limerick. In just three races there, the horse has won twice, a remarkable win rate of roughly two wins in every three runs. That second Limerick win came on 21 June 2025, though it has not returned to the winner's circle since, a gap of 14 months. The horse also shows a clear preference for longer distances, performing best over a mile and six furlongs to two miles, where it has won 3 of 23 races — a respectable 13 percent — compared to its overall 8 percent record. On normal, standard ground it is noticeably better too, winning 2 of 15 races (13 percent), suggesting it is less comfortable when conditions turn against it.

Trained by Denis Gerard Hogan at Cloughjordan in County Tipperary, God Of Thunder has been partnered most often by Daniel King, though their record together is modest at 1 win from 8 races. The horse was raced active just yesterday but has struggled badly in recent months, failing to win in its last six races and finishing as far back as 16th most recently. At seven years old and with only four career wins from 51 races, God Of Thunder is the kind of horse that will likely remain a mid-card performer, solid enough to earn its keep but unlikely to deliver any major shocks — unless it can somehow find its way back to Limerick.
