Oldschool Outlaw

The recent form figures tell the story almost too neatly. Reading from most recent backwards — 5-2-1-1-1-7 — there is a cluster of three consecutive wins sitting right in the middle of that sequence, all within the last six races. The latest of those victories came at Fairyhouse in February 2026, a track that has hosted some of Ireland's finest jump racing for over a century. It all started at Navan in November 2025, where Oldschool Outlaw broke its duck for the first time, and things have moved quickly since. The one blip, that seventh-place finish at the head of the recent form, is worth noting — but a single poor run surrounded by winners is hardly cause for alarm.

Behind the horse stands one of the most powerful operations in Irish racing. Gordon Elliott, training out of Longwood in County Meath, has sent out 209 winners already this season — a number that is almost difficult to process. That is not a yard that wastes entries or runs horses for the sake of it. When a horse comes out of Elliott's stable in good form, it tends to be there for a reason. Oldschool Outlaw is currently active, which means the team clearly believes there is more to come from a horse that has already exceeded what most could have expected from just seven career races.
