The recent form is a mixed bag. Reading from oldest to most recent, he finished 13th, 7th, second, and then unplaced last time out — just one day ago, so this is a horse very much in the thick of it. That second-place finish stands out as the moment he threatened to break through, but the latest run was a step back. Whether that's a blip or a sign he's found his level, only a few more races will tell.
He's trained by Brian M McMahon, based out of Scarriff in Co Galway. The yard has sent out four winners already this season, so there's plenty of life in the operation. McMahon will know better than anyone whether Tantrum Boy is a horse still figuring things out or one who needs the stars to align to produce his best. With just four career runs to his name at the age of six, patience has clearly been part of the plan — the question now is whether that patience is about to pay off.
