The most recent of those Clonmel wins came just five weeks ago, on 26 March 2026, and the current form makes encouraging reading: finishing third, second, and first in three of the last six outings shows a horse that has been building steadily rather than flatlining. That sequence — a fourth and fifth before the placings tightened and the win arrived — has the shape of a horse coming back to its best at exactly the right time.
Darragh O'Keeffe has been in the saddle for 8 of Kilbarry Saint's 22 races and has one win to show for it, a win rate of around 1 in 8. That is not a flashing headline, but the consistency of the partnership matters — a jockey who knows a horse well is worth more than the raw numbers suggest, especially over a course the horse clearly enjoys. The trainer, C O'Keeffe, operates from Kilbarry in Waterford, a small yard that has sent out one winner this season. In that context, Kilbarry Saint is not just a racehorse — it is the yard's calling card.
The name on the side of the horsebox is almost poetic: a horse called Kilbarry Saint, trained at Kilbarry, winning at a track two hours up the road. Whether that is clever planning or happy coincidence, the results speak for themselves. Keep an eye on the entries at Clonmel.
