Weheedd

What the profile does have going for it is the yard behind the horse. William Haggas, based in Newmarket, is one of the most formidable trainers operating in Britain right now — his team has sent out 170 winners already this season alone. To put that in context, that is an extraordinary number. Most stables would celebrate 170 winners as a career highlight; Haggas is doing it in a single season. Being part of that operation means Weheedd has access to the best facilities and expertise the sport can offer. Horses from this yard tend to be placed in races where they have a genuine chance of winning, so the fact that Weheedd raced just yesterday and is actively campaigning suggests the team still believe there is a win in the horse.

At 3 years old, there is plenty of time for the penny to drop. Some horses take a handful of races to work out what is being asked of them. With zero wins from two attempts, Weheedd has everything still to prove — but with 170 winners behind the same stable gate this season, you would not bet against the team eventually finding the right race to get the horse off the mark.
