Tangara Bay
Tangara Bay has been one of the slowest horses to break through to a winner's circle, taking five races before tasting success at Clonmel on 26 March 2026 — a milestone that came as a six-year-old, well into what is typically a horse's prime racing years. Since that first win five months ago, the horse has managed just one place finish from five subsequent races, suggesting that victory was a rare highlight rather than the start of a winning run. With just 1 win and 2 places from 7 races overall, Tangara Bay has won roughly 1 in every 7 races, a modest return that places the horse squarely in the lower tiers of racing.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

🔍 Full Analysis
TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
Trained by Peter Fahey at Monasterevín in County Kildare, Tangara Bay competes within a yard that has enjoyed decent form this season with 14 winners sent out. The horse remains actively raced — having run just one day ago — but recent form has been discouraging. Over the last six runs, Tangara Bay has finished unplaced four times, with positions of 4, 4, 5, 1, 16, and 9. That stretch suggests inconsistency and a horse that struggles to find its best form on a regular basis. Whether Tangara Bay will ever recapture the form that brought that first win at Clonmel remains an open question.
