Indigo Dream
Indigo Dream is a 4-year-old carrying the hopes of trainer
Ross O'Sullivan's Kilcullen yard, though those hopes have been quietly tested over the past nine months. The horse has won just once in seventeen races—a breakthrough victory at Dundalk back in December—and has managed nine places to go with that single success, leaving a win rate of roughly 1 in every 17 races.

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
The real concern is the drought since that December win. Indigo Dream hasn't crossed the line first in the nine months since, despite picking up the occasional place—second, seventh, fourth, eighth, and sixteenth in the last six outings suggest a horse that shows glimpses of competing but struggles to translate those efforts into wins. The most recent outing came just a day ago, and the horse is still active, which means O'Sullivan and his team haven't given up on finding the right race or conditions to unlock another victory.
There is one bright spot worth noting: when ridden by Shane Foley, Indigo Dream performs noticeably better. In five races together, they have combined for one win—a 20% win rate, which is substantially higher than the horse's overall record. That partnership may offer the most realistic chance of another breakthrough, though Indigo Dream will need to turn one of those places into a win sooner rather than later to justify the continued investment in its racing career.
