Milan Forth

The horse's last victory came at Cork on 3 January 2026, now nine months in the past. Since then, six runs have brought nothing better than a fourth place, a run of blank races that will frustrate both trainer Simon Cavanagh's Mullingar yard and the yard hoping for another day in the sun. The most recent outing, just yesterday, resulted in a 13th-place finish—a reminder that at seven years old, Milan Forth may be heading toward veteran status without quite having fulfilled his earlier promise. Still, he remains actively campaigned, and the pattern of his form suggests he is not yet finished as a winning proposition.

What stands out is how much the Healy connection matters. When that jockey is in the saddle, the horse transforms into something altogether more effective. Whether through tactical nous, rider confidence, or simple chemistry, those three wins from eight rides together represent the horse's best work. The question now is whether Milan Forth can find his way back to the winner's enclosure before age and a long absence from victory begin to work against him. For a horse still racing regularly, the drought will not last forever—but it has already lasted far longer than ideal.
