This horse was not on the card we last read. The figures above are carried forward from the day it was, and nothing about it has changed since.
collected through 2026-10-24 15:00:04 UTCderived 2026-10-24 16:00:40 UTC
Finished first, second or third, whatever the number of runners. Not the each-way place terms of the race, which depend on the field and the bookmaker.
Every figure below uses only races run before the date above. Nothing here is a prediction, and nothing here is a price.
The record we hold
| Record | Runs | Wins | Placed | Win rate | Placed rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| All runs we hold | 53 | 5 | 24 | 9.4% | 45.3% |
Our archive runs to 23 October 2026. A run after that date is missing from these figures, so read them as what we hold, not as a complete record.
By going, course and distance
The portals show a rolling recent window because that is what their feed delivers. These are every run we hold, split by the conditions of the day and cut at the archive date — with the sample beside each rate, because a rate without one is a guess with a decimal point.

A going, course or distance band appears only where we hold at least two runs of it. A single run is not a strike rate, and rounding one run to “100%” would be noise wearing the clothes of a finding. Going and distance are grouped into bands by us, and each band carries the range it covers, because a rate over “staying” is unreadable without it; the course is as the record names it, with all-weather and turf at the same course kept apart.
Recent activity
It had run 6 days before. It had run 3 times in the last 30 days, winning once, and 4 times in the last 90 days, winning once.
Counts, not rates — one win from two runs is not a fifty per cent strike rate, it is two runs. Everything here is cut at 15 October 2026.
Jockey and trainer
| Connection | Runs | Wins | Placed | Win rate | Placed rate |

The table above is the whole-archive record, not this pairing. Those figures are the rider’s across every ride we hold and the yard’s across every runner we hold, to 23 October 2026. What follows is narrower.
Joseph Anthony Murray has saddled it 53 times, for 5 wins.
Under today’s conditions, at Curragh, Luke McAteer is 9 from 219 — a 4.1%, and over 7f to 1m1f, 70 from 836 — an 8.4%; at Curragh, Joseph Anthony Murray is 2 from 26 — a 7.7%, and over 7f to 1m1f, 8 from 109 — a 7.3%. Course and distance are taken one at a time, not together.
Sire
| Sire | Runs | Wins | Placed | Win rate | Placed rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hot Streakprogeny we hold — see the note below | 1409 | 122 | 387 | 8.7% | 27.5% |
The sire’s progeny across every run we hold to 23 October 2026. It is a statement about the stallion’s stock in general, not about this horse.
Breeding is complete for races up to 22 July 2026. For races since, we hold the sire for 96.9% of runners (32,943 of 34,011), so progeny totals under-count recent runs.
Narrowed to the distance of this race — 7f to 1m1f — that same progeny record is 12 from 283, a 4.2% strike rate. Going and course are not held constant here.
Figures are our own count over an archive of published race results, computed using only races run before 15 October 2026. A rate is shown only where we hold at least two runs of that kind. Race times are BST. mazetick publishes measurements, not tips: nothing here is advice to bet, and no price appears on this page. All horses in the archive.
