Thegooseiscooked
Thegooseiscooked has the look of a horse that tries hard but rarely gets the job done. At nine years old and with just one win from 32 races—a win rate of roughly 3%—this is a horse that knows how to run a race but seldom finishes in front. The single victory came at Gowran Park on 13 August 2025, and that remains the only moment of glory in a long career. Since then, fourteen months have passed without another win, though the horse keeps turning up and accumulating places. Recent form shows a horse still active and still showing up—last raced just a day ago—but struggling to find that winning touch.Based on TrackLab's analysis

Our model's view, based on this horse's career and recent runs
What's interesting about Thegooseiscooked is not what it wins but who rides it and where it runs best. Jockey Colin Keane has the best record aboard, winning 1 of his 5 rides—a 20% win rate that's notably higher than the horse's overall record. That's worth watching. At distances between a mile and a furlong and a mile and two furlongs, the horse has won 1 of 10 races at those trips, suggesting this is where it's most likely to be competitive. Gerard Keane's yard at Trim, Co Meath, has been sending out winners this season, which at least speaks to a trainer who knows how to prepare horses for the track. For a horse this age with this record, every race is a chance to prove it can still find that elusive second win.
