Proud Nation
There's a lot to like about a three-year-old horse that wins one of the top races in Britain on just its third time out, and that's exactly what Proud Nation did at York on 7th September 2025. That victory — a Class 2 race at one of the most prestigious tracks in the country — was its first career win, making it all the more striking. Most young horses take several races to find their feet; Proud Nation found the top shelf almost immediately.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
The overall record reads one win and three places from three races, which works out at winning 1 in every 3 races it has contested. For a horse this early in its career, that kind of consistency is genuinely encouraging. The recent form of third, first, second tells the story of a horse that has barely put a foot wrong — placed every single time it has run, with that big York win sandwiched in the middle.
Proud Nation is trained by Richard and Peter Fahey at Musley Bank in North Yorkshire — conveniently close to York, though the quality of that win suggests it wouldn't matter how far they had to travel. The Fahey yard has sent out 9 winners this season and is well-regarded for producing sharp, well-prepared young horses. With Proud Nation still active and having raced as recently as yesterday, there's clearly more to come from this one.
