Boola Times
Thirteen races into its career, Boola Times is still searching for that elusive first win. The five-year-old has managed just one place from those 13 outings, meaning it has crossed the line in front of a rival horse at the finish on only a handful of occasions — a tough return by any measure.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
Recent form makes for difficult reading. A third-place finish a little while back offered a glimmer of hope, but aside from that, Boola Times has been finishing well down the field — a seventh, a tenth, a fourteenth, and a twentieth. The most recent run came just yesterday, showing at least that the horse is active and being kept busy by the team at Reinduff in Co Waterford.
That yard belongs to trainer David Kenneth Budds, who has sent out two winners so far this season. It is a small but functioning operation, and the fact that Boola Times keeps getting a run suggests the team believes there is a race to be won somewhere down the line. Whether that day comes remains to be seen — but with 13 races and no wins on the board, the horse will need to find significant improvement to prove them right.
