Mento

Three races in, and Mento has already shown enough to make people take notice. The 4-year-old has won 1 from 3 races — that's a 33% win rate, or roughly 1 in every 3 outings — and picked up a place finish along the way, meaning only one of its three runs has come up blank. That is a tidy record for a horse still finding its feet.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's Detailed Breakdown

Auto-Generated

That one win came just this week, at Kilbeggan on 31 May 2026, which tells you this horse is in form right now. Kilbeggan is a tight, quirky track in the Irish midlands that tends to sort out horses quickly — you either handle it or you don't — and Mento handled it. With the race only a day old, the confidence in the yard will be high.

Mento is trained by Thomas Cooper, based down in Tralee, Co Kerry. Cooper's yard has sent out 8 winners already this season, which suggests a stable operating with real momentum. When a trainer is firing in winners at that rate, it's usually because the horses are fit, the planning is sharp, and the team knows what they're doing. Mento sitting in that yard right now is no bad thing.
