Menas Miracle

That recent form — a win, a fall or unseated rider, a fifth, a second, a seventh, and a fourth across the last six races — shows a horse that is competitive more often than not, even if results have been mixed. Crucially, Menas Miracle won just this week at Tramore, which means it arrives at the track in the kind of form that matters most: current, sharp, and confident.

The ground makes a real difference to this horse. On normal conditions, Menas Miracle has won 2 of its 5 races — that is 40%, which is a remarkable ratio. Two wins from five sounds modest until you realise that most horses who run 13 times are lucky to win once or twice in total. When the ground suits, this horse delivers.

The partnership with jockey Conor Stone-Walsh has been the consistent thread through much of this career — nine races together, one win, which works out at roughly 1 in every 9 rides. That is not a stunning win rate, but shared experience counts for something, and Stone-Walsh knows this horse's rhythms better than almost anyone. The trainer, Brendan Oliver Walsh, is based at Tomhaggard in County Wexford — a small yard that has sent out 2 winners this season. Neither win is taken for granted at an operation of that size, which makes each one meaningful.

Menas Miracle first broke through at Wexford in July 2025 and has now added a second win at Tramore. A seven-year-old with momentum, a ground preference that is easy to plan around, and a trainer who clearly knows how to place it well — this is a horse worth paying attention to while the form is live.
