Make The Tide
Make The Tide broke through with a hard-fought win at Navan three weeks ago, a first success that came after seven races spent learning the ropes. The three-year-old has shown real promise over middle distances, particularly around the 1m1f to 1m2f range where it has won 1 of its 4 races — a success rate of 25 percent that suggests this is where the horse's strengths lie. With one win and three places from eight races overall, it has struck just once in every eight outings, but that breakthrough has come at exactly the right time.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis
Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
Recent form tells an encouraging story. After finishing second at its last race, Make The Tide has already been returned to action, suggesting the yard is keen to build momentum. Trained by W. McCreery at Rathbride, the horse runs for a yard in good form with 19 winners sent out this season. The timing of the recent victory — coming after months of placing without winning — suggests Make The Tide has found its feet just as the team wanted it to. With the horse still actively racing and showing signs of improvement, there is room to believe this debut win might be the start of something more consistent.
