Spodo Komodo

The win itself came at The Curragh on 28 September 2025, and it remains his only victory to date. Eleven months have passed since that breakthrough, which suggests the form has been harder to repeat than the initial success implied. His recent form has been mixed — a sequence of 10-10-2-10-1-3 across his last six races shows flashes of promise, particularly that second place two runs ago and the third three races back, but also frustrating runs where he has been beaten a long way. Trained by John James Feane at the Curragh yard, Spodo Komodo is in a team that has sent out 8 winners this season, so there is no shortage of experience in how to crack races.

Still actively racing — he was out just yesterday — this is a horse who runs regularly and is clearly still trying. For punters looking at him, the bet is whether that preference for the shorter distances can deliver another win soon, or whether his single victory will remain a high-water mark. Either way, Spodo Komodo is the sort of mid-range performer who makes racing interesting without being exceptional.
