Splashing Out
Splashing Out has picked up two wins in its last six outings, which is exactly the kind of form you want to see from an eight-year-old who has been racing for nearly three years. The horse won most recently at Wexford just last week, and before that grabbed another victory two races earlier — a run of success that suggests
Eoin Griffin's Kilkenny yard has found something to work with. Over a career of 33 races, Splashing Out has managed four wins and thirteen places, which works out to roughly one win in every eight races. That is honest work for a horse at this level, nothing spectacular but nothing to be ashamed of either.

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
What is more interesting is how much Splashing Out loves racing on normal ground. In those conditions, the horse has won two of five races — a 40% win rate that stands out sharply against its overall record. That is the kind of ground preference worth noting for anyone following the horse's future entries. Recent form has been mixed: a couple of placings, then an eighteenth-place finish, a win, another placing, and then the victory last week. Simon Torrens, the jockey who rides Splashing Out most often, has had no luck so far in twelve races together, which might be worth watching if the partnership continues. The trainer, who has sent out eight winners this season from Slieverue, clearly keeps the horse actively campaigned — it was back in action just a day after that last win, which tells you Griffin believes there is still plenty of racing left in this eight-year-old.
