Thaluna

The win came at York on 10 October 2025, and it remains the standout moment so far. York is one of the most respected tracks in Britain — a big, wide, galloping circuit that tends to find out horses who aren't quite good enough. Winning there means something. With a 25% win rate across four races — that's 1 win from every 4 outings — Thaluna has already shown it can get the job done at a venue that matters.

Behind the horse is one of the most powerful operations in British racing. William Haggas, based in Newmarket, has sent out 170 winners this season alone. That is a remarkable number — it means his yard is producing winners at a rate that puts it among the very best in the country. Horses trained by Haggas tend to be well-prepared and well-placed, which makes Thaluna's consistent placed form feel less like luck and more like quiet competence from a team that knows what it is doing. Having raced just one day ago, Thaluna is very much an active, ongoing story.
