Jay Jay Zee
Jay Jay Zee is a seven-year-old who has managed just one win from nine races over a career that stretches back more than three years. That solitary victory came at Ballinrobe in April 2023, and he has not found the winner's enclosure since — a drought of 41 months. His recent form tells a story of struggle: across his last six outings he has picked up three places but no wins, with finishes of 20th, 12th, 4th, 5th, and 5th most recently. He was out again just a day ago.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Yet his trainer remains undeterred. Asked about the horse in late October, the trainer described him as a genuine low-grade performer who will win races again — and suggested that the ownership group should be enjoying the experience regardless of the scoreline. That confidence in a horse who wins roughly 1 in every 9 races reflects the spirit of the smaller yards: sometimes a horse's value lies not in its medal haul but in its consistency and the simple pleasure it brings to the people behind it. Jay Jay Zee keeps running, and sooner or later, another day like Ballinrobe may come round.
