Patrick Street

The most telling number is on wet ground. On soft, muddy surfaces, Patrick Street has won 2 of his 7 races — that's 29%, or better than 1 in 3. For a horse who otherwise wins around 1 in 15, that is a dramatic shift. When the rain arrives and the ground cuts up, he becomes a completely different proposition. Trainer Andrew Kinirons clearly knows this, and getting him to the track in the right conditions is half the job. The yard has been in decent form this season, sending out 5 winners, and Patrick Street's win at Limerick just five weeks ago — on 25 April 2026 — showed he is still very much competing.

His best distance is also pretty specific: somewhere between a mile and three furlongs and a mile and four. Over that trip he has won 2 of his 11 races, around 1 in every 5 or 6 — again, well above his overall average. It is the kind of detail that matters enormously in racing. A horse that finds his ideal trip and soft ground on the same afternoon is suddenly a genuine player, not an afterthought.

Regular jockey Jack Kearney has been aboard for 13 of his 45 races and has one win to show for it. Their combination produced Patrick Street's first win at Dundalk back in February 2022, so there is history there, even if the success has been hard to repeat. Recent form reads a third place and a first place in the last three completed runs, suggesting he is currently in one of his better patches. At seven years old, Patrick Street is an experienced, knowing racehorse. He will not win often, but when the ground is wet, the trip is right, and the pieces align — he has shown more than once that he can deliver.
