TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
The horse's most recent outing came just yesterday, and his latest win, at Leopardstown this week, shows he can still find the line when conditions suit. His first victory came at Gowran Park on 16 June 2024, and his win at Leopardstown on 20 August 2026 suggests he has found some form there. Chris Hayes, who rides him regularly, has partnered Tachos on 12 occasions but has won aboard him only once—a win rate of 8%, which tells you this is not a straightforward ride. Looking at his last six runs, Tachos has shown mixed results: a recent win, a third, a fifth, a ninth, and a fourteenth, with one race missed. That uneven form—mixing placings with well-beaten efforts—is typical of a horse trying to find his level, capable on his day but not consistent enough to be a reliable proposition. At this stage of his career, Tachos remains a moderate performer, though his win this week proves he has not lost his ability to compete.
