Keepsgettingbetter

Keepsgettingbetter is a 3-year-old with a knack for getting the job done at Dundalk, where it has won 2 of its 3 races at the track. The horse's record tells the story of steady improvement: 2 wins and 5 places from 9 races so far, with a win rate of roughly 1 in every 5 starts. Recent form has been encouraging — it has won 2 of its last 6 races, including that second victory at Dundalk on 10 April 2026. The most recent outing, just over a day ago, ended in eighth place, but the horse's pattern of consistency in the placings (with a run of 2-2-3 finishes before the last race) suggests it is competitive and regularly in the mix.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

What makes this horse interesting is how it performs under specific conditions. On normal ground, Keepsgettingbetter has won 2 of its 3 races — a win rate of roughly two-thirds — which suggests it has a genuine preference for standard conditions rather than extremes. It also performs best over 1m1f to 1m2f, the distance range where it has its only win in that particular stretch (1 win from 3 races at those lengths). That Dundalk record, though, is the standout: 2 wins from 3 races at the track shows real dominance in a small sample, making it a course specialist worth following when it returns there. Trained by Donnacha Aidan O'Brien at Ballyroe in Tipperary — a yard that has already sent out 31 winners this season — Keepsgettingbetter has all the support of a top operation. After a four-month gap since its last win, the horse is still active and still proving it belongs in competitive company.
