Tyson Fury

There's something fitting about a horse named Tyson Fury who keeps getting off the canvas. With just 2 wins from 23 races, this nine-year-old isn't going to be confused with an elite performer — but the story is more interesting than the headline numbers suggest.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

Both of those wins have come at the same place: Dundalk. That's not a coincidence. In 9 races at the track, Tyson Fury has won twice and placed several more times, making him one of those horses that genuinely comes alive in a specific setting. Dundalk is an all-weather venue, and something about the surface and the layout clearly suits him. Trainers and jockeys learn to trust these patterns, and Denis Gerard Hogan's yard — based in Cloughjordan, County Tipperary, and in strong form with 56 winners already this season — will know exactly when to point him back there.

The most recent win came at Dundalk on 13 March 2026, just eight weeks ago, which gives the yard something to build on. His recent form reads 2-2-1 in his last three completed runs — that's three consecutive places, including a win — which suggests he's in one of the better patches of his career. For a horse who wins roughly 1 in every 11 races overall, that kind of consistency is actually rare. His regular jockey J M Sheridan has ridden him to 1 win from 6 attempts together, a win rate of around 1 in 6, which is notably better than his overall record.

Where Tyson Fury struggles is when the competition steps up. In five races at the top end of the sport — Class 2 level — he hasn't won once. That tells you he's a horse who is competitive at his own level but finds life harder when the bar rises. He's also a long-distance specialist in the making, with his best performances coming over two miles or more, where 1 win from 7 races at 14% is actually his strongest conversion rate by trip.

He raced just one day ago, so he's very much in the thick of things right now. At nine years old, with his favoured track identified and a bit of momentum behind him, the question isn't whether he can win again — he clearly can. It's whether the yard keep finding the right opportunities at Dundalk to let him do it.
