About

Originally hailing from Ireland, the 7-year-old thoroughbred You Make Me Smile has established itself as a strong performer. Guided by P A Fahy from Kildare, it has the distinction of being sired by Elusive Pimpernel and born to Just One Smile. Thus far, You Make Me Smile has claimed victory in two races. On May 4, 2025, at Sligo, the horse secured its most impressive win to date, taking home the $6,000 prize in the Tote.ie Apprentice Handicap (0-60).
