Delta
Delta broke through at Fairyhouse in June 2025, but that single victory has proved hard to follow. The 4-year-old has raced 10 times in total and won just once — a win rate of one win in every ten races — though it has shown some consistency with five places alongside that sole success. The long drought since that Fairyhouse win 14 months ago suggests Delta has been competing in tough company or simply struggling to find the form needed at this level.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
Recent runs offer mixed signals. The horse has been active through the last six races, picking up a second place two runs ago and running fourth in its most recent outing just a day ago. That level of regular racing, without a win in sight for over a year, points to a horse that keeps trying but hasn't quite found its way back to the winner's circle. Trained by Joseph Patrick O'Brien at Owning Hill in Kilkenny — a yard that has sent out 160 winners this season alone — Delta has access to top-class facilities and expertise. Yet the numbers suggest it may have reached a ceiling in terms of competitive ability. For a horse now four years old with just one win from ten starts, finding another victory would require a significant shift in fortune or a move to less demanding company.
