His first career win came at Fairyhouse in November 2024, and he followed that up with a second success at Cork in April 2025. Two wins in the space of five months was a real purple patch for a horse who had previously taken a while to get off the mark. Since then, though, the wins have dried up. His last six results read 4-3-4-2-7-3 — he's been placing regularly, knocking on the door, but not quite getting through it. That second place in his recent run is the closest he's come, and it suggests he's still competitive at his level without quite finding that extra gear when it matters most.
He's trained by Ms Eleanor Broderick out of Fermoy in County Cork — a small yard that has sent out just one winner so far this season. That context matters: this isn't a powerhouse operation sending out forty horses a week. Every run Lisleigh Lad makes counts, and the fact that he raced just yesterday shows the team are keeping him busy and in form. Whether the winner's enclosure is around the corner again is hard to say, but at eight years old, with a habit of finishing in the prizes, he's clearly still enjoying his racing.
