Jinxs Link
At 10 years old, Jinxs Link is a seasoned campaigner with a career record that tells a story of persistence over brilliance — 2 wins and 5 places from 27 races amounts to a win rate of roughly 1 in every 14 outings, which is modest by any measure. The first of those wins came at Kilbeggan in July 2023, and the second at Down Royal in August 2024, meaning the horse has now gone 20 months without finding the winner's enclosure. That's a long drought, and the recent form figures — finishing 4th, 6th, 4th, 8th, and then two non-completions — don't suggest a comeback is imminent.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
What keeps things interesting is that Jinxs Link is still active, having raced just yesterday. At an age when plenty of horses have been retired, this one is still turning up and competing, which says something about its durability if not its current form. The most regular partnership has been with jockey Dillon Maxwell, but their seven races together have produced zero wins — not a combination that has clicked, at least not yet.
There isn't a standout narrative of a course specialist or a big-occasion performer here. Jinxs Link is a horse that has found winning difficult throughout its career, managed two victories in a 14-month window, and is now on an extended run without troubling the judge. For anyone following it, patience has been the defining requirement.
