Sir Callisto

At six years old, Sir Callisto has taken his time finding his feet, but he has quietly put together a profile that tells an interesting story. Across 14 races he has won twice and placed four more times — a win rate of around 1 in every 7 races, or 14% — which on its own sounds modest. But dig a little deeper and a clear pattern emerges.Based on TrackLab's analysis

TrackLab's detailed breakdown

Both of those wins have come at Dundalk, Ireland's all-weather track, and Sir Callisto has raced there six times in total. That means he has won 2 of his 6 visits — a 33% win rate at a single venue. For context, most horses at this level win roughly 1 in 10 or fewer races at any given track, so finding one that wins a third of its races somewhere specific is genuinely worth noticing. His first win there came in February 2025, and he went back and did it again on 1 April 2026, about three months ago. Dundalk clearly suits him, and that is the kind of reliable pattern that makes a horse interesting.

He also has a strong preference for normal ground conditions — he has won 2 of his 6 races on a standard surface, again that same 33% figure. It all points to a horse that knows what he likes and performs when he gets it.

His most regular jockey is Robbie Colgan, who has ridden him five times and won once together — a 20% win rate from those five races, which is actually ahead of Sir Callisto's overall career average. That partnership looks like the one to watch. Sir Callisto is trained by A.J. Martin at Summerhill in County Meath, a yard that has sent out 13 winners already this season, so the team around him is clearly in decent form.

His recent run of results reads 6-3-1-2-10-8 going back from his most recent race — he raced just yesterday, so he is right in the thick of it. That second place and win in the middle of that sequence, followed by a third, show he was in a real purple patch not long ago. Whether he can rediscover that form at Dundalk, on normal ground, with Colgan aboard is the question worth asking — but history says the ingredients are there.
