Staysound Susie
In 30 races, she has won three times and finished in the top three on 11 occasions — a record that speaks to a horse who can compete at a decent level but struggles to find the winning formula regularly. She wins roughly once in every ten races, a modest win rate that reflects the toughness of the sport even at her level.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
Her most recent victory came at The Curragh on November 2nd, 2025, just over a year ago. Since then, the wins have dried up entirely. Across her last six races — the most telling snapshot of current form — she has managed only a single top-three finish, a fourth place, before slipping back to 11th most recently. That pattern suggests she may be struggling to recapture the form that brought her that Curragh success, or simply finding the right race and ground conditions increasingly elusive.
Staysound Susie is trained by A. Slattery at Thurles in County Tipperary, a yard that has had considerable success this season with 62 winners to its name. She is most regularly ridden by Andrew Slattery, though their partnership has yielded only one win from 15 races together — a seven percent win rate that is lower than her overall record, suggesting the pair may not be ideally matched. That discrepancy is worth watching: a change of rider, or a return to the conditions and courses where she has found most success, might be what this honest mare needs to get back into a winning frame of mind.
