That winning moment came on 3rd March 2026, and the recent form figures of 6-1-7-4-6 tell you he hasn't been able to back it up since. The number to focus on there is the 1 — that's the Leopardstown win sitting in the middle of the sequence, sandwiched between some less inspiring efforts. It suggests a horse that has a level he can reach, but hasn't yet found the consistency to reach it regularly. He raced just yesterday, so he is very much in active training and him the yard are clearly keeping his busy in search of that next breakthrough.

Thomas Gibney trains her out of Trim in County Meath, a yard that has sent out five winners already this season — a tidy return that suggests things are going well on the ground there. Jockey J J Slevin has been the regular partner throughout, riding her in all five of her races and steering her to that Leopardstown victory. The two of them share a 20% win rate together, which again translates to one win in five — not spectacular on paper, but the fact they found their best day at a track like Leopardstown gives that single win a weight that the raw numbers alone don't quite capture. The next few weeks will reveal whether that March performance was a sign of things to come or a high point that proves hard to repeat.
