A Penny A Hundred
A Penny A Hundred is a seven-year-old horse that has found the winner's circle just three times in 21 races — winning roughly once every seven attempts. That modest record masks a horse that knows how to place respectably: it has picked up ten places across its career, which puts it in the frame far more often than it actually wins. The horse last tasted victory at Ballinrobe back in September 2024, more than a year and a half ago, a long drought that includes a recent run of six races without a win.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

🔍 Full Analysis
TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
The horse does have a clear preference: put it on normal ground conditions and its form improves noticeably, with two wins from eight races on that surface — a 25 percent win rate, substantially better than its overall record. That preference is worth noting for future races. Currently trained by W P Mullins at Muine Bheag in County Carlow, a yard that has had an excellent season with 215 winners, A Penny A Hundred is ridden most often by Danny Mullins, though that partnership has yielded just one win from eight races together. The horse remains active, having raced just a day ago, when it finished seventh. For a horse struggling to recapture winning form, finding the right ground conditions and race type might yet unlock another victory.
