Airds Moss

Trained by David Harry Kelly out of Rathvin in County Tipperary, Airds Moss is part of a yard that clearly knows what it is doing right now. Kelly's team has sent out 13 winners already this season — that is a yard operating with real momentum, and Airds Moss looks like one of the horses carrying that form forward. When a trainer is in that kind of run, the horses tend to arrive at the track fit, confident, and ready to perform.

With only two races on the clock, there is still plenty unknown about Airds Moss — how it handles different conditions, whether it can step up against tougher competition. But a 50% win rate, which means it has won 1 in every 2 races it has entered, is the kind of number that makes people pay attention. Most horses that race regularly for years never get close to that ratio. The fact that it raced just yesterday and is already being talked about says everything about the buzz currently surrounding this horse.
