Tokenomics

There is a horse in David Marnane's Tipperary yard that has quietly built one of the more consistent profiles you will find at this level. Tokenomics, a five-year-old trained out of Bansha in Co Tipperary, has won 5 races from 19 outings and finished in the top three on 11 occasions — that means in roughly half of all its races, it has come home with prize money. A win rate of 26%, or about 1 in every 4 races, is genuinely solid for a horse at this stage of its career, and the recent form underlines that it is very much in the thick of things right now: in its last six races it has finished second, second, first, third, fourth, and second. That is a horse that keeps turning up, keeps being competitive, and keeps getting beaten by not very much.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

The partnership with jockey Luke McAteer is one of the more interesting threads running through this horse's story. In 15 races together they have won 5 times — that is a win rate of 33%, or 1 in every 3 rides. For context, that is a meaningfully better record than Tokenomics manages with anyone else. When McAteer is in the saddle, something clicks.

The distance that suits this horse best is 7 furlongs to a mile — that is roughly the middle ground between a sprint and a longer test of stamina. Over that range it has won 3 of 7 races, a 43% win rate that basically amounts to winning almost every other time it lines up at the trip it prefers. Pair that with normal ground conditions and the numbers get even better: 2 wins from 5 races, or 40%.

Then there is Dundalk. Tokenomics has raced there six times and won twice, with its most recent victory coming as recently as November 2025. That course record matters because Dundalk is an all-weather track that runs through the winter months, and a horse that handles it reliably is a horse that can keep earning through the quieter part of the season. Marnane's yard has sent out 16 winners this season alone, so this is not a horse operating in isolation — it is part of a setup that clearly knows what it is doing.

Tokenomics raced just one day ago, which tells you everything about where it is in its career: right in the middle of a busy, productive spell.
