The Cheeky Pup
Four races, zero wins, and finishing positions of 8th, 14th, and 12th tell a pretty honest story — The Cheeky Pup has not yet found a way to get competitive, and at five years old, time is not exactly on its side. The one bright spot is a single placed finish somewhere in that career record, which at least shows the horse has been in the mix once, even if only briefly.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
Trained by John Joseph Hanlon out of Bagenalstown in County Carlow, The Cheeky Pup is at least in a yard that knows how to get horses winning. Hanlon's team has sent out 11 winners already this season, so the firepower is there — the question is whether this particular horse can tap into it. Racing just one day ago, The Cheeky Pup is very much an active runner, which suggests the team still believes there is something to work with.
For now, though, the profile is thin and the form figures are difficult to dress up. Until The Cheeky Pup gives us something more to talk about, this is a horse still searching for its moment.
