Trained by Nigel Tinkler at his yard in Langton, North Yorkshire, Paddy's Day has been a consistent earner across a career of 50 races — picking up wins or a place finish in 32 of them. Tinkler clearly knows how to place him well, and this season his yard has already sent out 37 winners, so there is no shortage of form flowing from that operation. The horse first announced himself with a debut win at Windsor back in May 2022, and his trainer noted at the time that he was an uncomplicated sort who took everything in his stride. That easy temperament seems to have served him well across three full seasons of racing.
The most important relationship in Paddy's Day's racing life is with jockey Alex Jary, who has ridden him to 7 of those 9 career wins from 24 races together — a win rate of 29%, or close to 1 in every 3 rides. That is a genuinely striking number and suggests the two have developed a real understanding. When Jary is in the saddle, something clicks.
Recent form tells a story of a horse coming back to his very best. After a mid-season run that included a couple of fourth-place finishes, Paddy's Day has climbed back up the results — finishing third, third, fifth, and then winning a Class 2 race at Newcastle in June 2025, one of the better levels of racing in Britain. He also won a Class 2 there back in March. These are not small wins. He raced just a day ago and remains very much in action. On normal ground, he wins roughly 1 in every 3 races — 7 from 23. Everything about his profile points toward Newcastle, dry conditions, and Alex Jary aboard as the perfect combination.
