I Am The Moon

The first win came at Warwick in January 2025, and then a second followed at Doncaster in February 2026 — suggesting a horse that is learning how to win rather than one that is fading away. The last six runs read 2nd, 4th, a blank, 1st, 6th, blank, which is the kind of form that keeps the yard — sorry, keeps the yard — interested. There are rough patches in there, but the win at Doncaster is recent enough to matter, coming just three months ago.

Home for I Am The Moon is the Naunton yard of Nigel and Willy Twiston-Davies in Gloucestershire, a family operation that has been firing on all cylinders this season with 61 winners sent out. Being trained by a yard in that kind of form is a genuine advantage — horses tend to thrive when the whole stable is running well. In the saddle most often is Sam Twiston-Davies, who is part of the same family, and together they have won 1 from 5 races — a 20% win rate, or roughly 1 in every 5 rides together. That is a decent return and suggests a useful partnership built on familiarity.

At Class 4 level — the middle tier of British racing, a step below the most prestigious events — I Am The Moon has a record of 2 wins from 8 races, a 25% win rate, or 1 in every 4 attempts. That is genuinely solid at this level and suggests the horse is well placed when the team pitches it into these races rather than stretching it into tougher company. The horse raced just one day ago, meaning it is right in the thick of an active campaign. For a seven-year-old showing improving form and trained by a yard in fine fettle, there is every reason to think this story has more chapters to come.
