Spicy Margarita
Spicy Margarita is a 4-year-old with exactly one win to show from 22 career races, which came at Dundalk on 12 February 2025 and remains the horse's only success nearly two years on. The long drought since that Dundalk win tells its own story: Spicy Margarita has failed to break through in the last six outings, most recently finishing seventh just a day ago. Those recent placings — seventh, ninth, eleventh, seventh, eighth, and fourth — show a horse posting occasional minor successes but mostly finding itself in mid-field or worse.Based on TrackLab's analysis

🔍 Full analysis
Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
Trained by Robson De Aguiar at Mullingar in Westmeath, Spicy Margarita operates in a yard that has found considerably more success elsewhere this season, with 16 winners to its name. That gap between the yard's overall record and this horse's individual performance is telling. The horse is still active and still racing, which suggests the yard believe there is more to come, even if the evidence suggests it has found its level at a modest standard. For a horse now approaching five years old with such limited returns, every race becomes increasingly important if it is to add another victory before being retired to a quieter life.
