The real story lies in where she wins. At The Curragh, one of Ireland's premier tracks, she has claimed two victories from six races, a win rate that stands out in her record and suggests she handles that course particularly well. That first win came on 23 May 2025, and she has been operating at a respectable level ever since. Her most recent victory was seven weeks ago at Cork, so she is clearly still in form and actively racing. Trainer Robson De Aguiar, based at Mullingar in Westmeath, has built a productive yard this season with 16 winners already, and Ipanema Queen fits the pattern of a solid, workmanlike sort—not a star, but the kind of horse that pays her way and gives her the yard genuine days out.
The last six races tell the story of a horse trying hard. A 17th place result stands out as clearly her worst outing, but that is sandwiched between a win, a couple of placings, and some respectable mid-field finishes. She raced just yesterday, which suggests De Aguiar is not afraid to keep her busy, and there is no sign that she is struggling with her current programme. For a three-year-old still learning her trade, a 27 percent win rate at this level represents solid progress, and her dominance at The Curragh hints that there may be even better days ahead if she can carry that form to other tracks.
