Crowsatedappletart

What really stands out about Crowsatedappletart is its stranglehold on Wexford. Three wins from four races at that track is the kind of record that catches the eye—the horse runs there like it owns the place. That winning streak there is recent too; a victory on 7 May this year means the horse has not forgotten what it does best at that particular course. Away from Wexford, the record is more ordinary, which suggests the track itself suits the horse's running style or temperament in a way others do not. It is also worth noting that Crowsatedappletart prefers slightly soft ground, winning 2 of its 7 races (29%) when conditions are a bit muddy—notably better than its overall win rate, a useful detail for anyone tracking future entries.

Darragh O'Keeffe, the horse's most frequent partner, has ridden it 16 times and steered it to victory twice—a 12% win rate between them. That is below the horse's overall win rate, suggesting other jockeys have had more success aboard. At nine years old and still competing regularly, Crowsatedappletart appears to have found its level and, more importantly, its track. Punters eyeing a likely runner would do well to wait for a Wexford entry on soft or muddy ground; that is when this horse looks most dangerous.
