Temperance
Temperance has tasted victory just once in a long while. The horse broke through with a win at Naas on 10 May 2025, but that remains a distant memory—16 months have passed without another success, and he has raced 11 times since without adding to his tally. Over a career spanning 15 races, he has won once and finished in the places five times, a record that places him firmly in the middle order of racing ability. At four years old, he is still young enough to improve, yet the recent form is uninspiring: a string of seventh and seventh-place finishes followed by an eleventh, an eighth, and a fifth suggests he is treading water rather than climbing.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

🔍 Full Analysis
TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
Chris Hayes, his most regular rider, has partnered him nine times and recorded one win together—a similar ratio to the horse's overall record. The pairing has not clicked with any great consistency. Temperance seems to be suited to the shorter distances, performing best between 5 furlongs and 6.5 furlongs, where he has won one of ten races. Trainer Miss K McGivern, who oversees the yard, is still building her record with just a single winner sent out this season. The horse remains active—he raced just yesterday—but without a win in his last six outings, Temperance will need to find a change of fortune soon if he is to justify his place in the yard.
