The highlights are modest but real. That first win came at Killarney in October 2021, and the most recent at Wexford in July 2025 — meaning Dontdooddson was still finding the winner's enclosure at the age of 13, which is genuinely unusual. Most horses at that age have long since been retired. The fact that this one is still competing, and won less than a year ago, says something about its durability if not its dominance.
The current run of form is harder to put a positive spin on. Six races without a win, with finishes of 6th, 4th, 7th, 7th, 3rd, and 7th — that third place being the one bright spot in an otherwise quiet stretch. Jockey Jack G Gilligan has been aboard seven times without a win together, which is not ideal, though it is worth noting that Dontdooddson's overall record makes wins a rare event regardless of who is in the saddle.
Trainer Darren Collins has sent out 4 winners this season, so the yard is ticking along, and the fact that Dontdooddson is still being entered and running — raced just yesterday — suggests the team still believes there is something to work with. At 13, every race feels like a bonus.
