Madbadanddangerous
Madbadanddangerous has the look of a horse finally starting to work out what its trainer wants. The three-year-old, trained by
Noel Meade at Castletown in County Meath, broke through at Naas last September and has since picked up three wins from eleven races — a win rate of roughly one in every three and a half attempts. More telling is the recent pattern: two wins in the last six outings suggest something has clicked. It raced just yesterday, so this is a horse still actively learning the game, still hungry.

The real interest lies in what distance suits it best. Over the longer trips — one mile six furlongs to two miles — Madbadanddangerous has won half its races (2 wins from 4), which marks it out from the rest of the field at those stays. Shorter distances have been tougher going. The horse last won at Galway three months ago and since then has managed a second and a fourth place from five runs, suggesting that recent form has turned variable. Still, with a trainer whose yard has sent out 42 winners already this season, there is structure and support behind it. The name promises chaos, but the results show a horse with genuine ability over the right ground and the right trip — one worth watching the next time Meade decides to run it over those stretching distances where it actually knows what to do.
