Quint Major
Quint Major is a horse that has learned to survive on scraps. The eight-year-old has found the winner's enclosure just once in twenty-one career races — a breakthrough victory at Clonmel back in October 2024 — but has managed to finish in the top three on five occasions, suggesting a horse that knows how to stay competitive even when victory remains elusive. That single win, though, now sits a full twenty-five months in the past, and recent form shows no sign of a resurgence: across the last six outings, Quint Major has finished seventh, fifth, fifth, seventh, eighth and eleventh, a pattern that speaks to a horse running out of answers at this stage of its career.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis
Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
Trained by M A Molloy's yard at Thurles in County Tipperary, Quint Major has been a modest performer throughout its life. A win rate of roughly 1 in every 20 races is the kind of record you accumulate by turning up consistently and occasionally catching a favorable race, rather than through any natural superiority over rivals. The partnership with regular jockey Liam McKenna has yielded no winners across five rides together, and the trainer's broader output — four winners so far this season — suggests a yard working with limited resources. That Quint Major raced just yesterday underlines that the yard are still hunting for a race where this horse fits, but the recent form offers little encouragement that another day in the sun is imminent.
