Glitz And Glamour

That moment came at Sligo on 20 August 2025, and it is the most important thing on her record. A first career win is always significant — it tells you the horse has the ability and the will to cross the line first, which is never a given. Her recent form figures read 9-3-8-1-6-3, so the picture is mixed: there are some tough days in there alongside the places, and that single win stands out like a bright spot in an otherwise inconsistent sequence.

She has been off the track for around five months now, which is a meaningful absence. Horses can come back sharper from a break, or they can need a run to find their rhythm again — there is no way of knowing until she actually races. What matters is that she returns to a yard in form. Trainer E McNamara, based in Rathkeale in County Limerick, has sent out 22 winners this season, which suggests a stable that is functioning well and producing results right now.

Her regular partner in the saddle is Calum Hogan, who has ridden her in five of her six races and was aboard for the Sligo win. Together they have a win rate of roughly 1 in every 5 races, which is a decent ratio and speaks to a partnership that clearly has some understanding. When a jockey keeps coming back to the same horse, it usually means there is belief in what she can do. The question after five months on the sidelines is whether Glitz And Glamour can pick up where she left off.
