Success Story (IRE)
Success Story is a lightly raced gelding by Success Days out of a Kalanisi mare whose two previous foals to race have been unplaced. He made a promising debut when finishing second of seven at Carlisle in Feb 2026, racing prominently in a Class 5 junior NH Flat race on good to soft ground over 2m1f-2m4f. That remains his only start to date.
