Luna Beaux

Trained by Adrian Wintle out of Westbury-on-Severn in Gloucestershire, Luna Beaux is part of a yard that has sent out 30 winners already this season, so the operation clearly knows what it is doing. The team picked up their first win with this horse at Wolverhampton in January 2026, and then returned to the same track in March to do it again — a deliberate, patient approach that paid off. Luna Beaux also seems to need normal ground conditions to perform: both wins have come on a standard surface, going 2 from 8 races in those conditions, which is a 25% win rate. On anything softer or firmer, the results dry up.

The less comfortable truth is that Luna Beaux has not won in six races since that March victory, posting a string of fourth and fifth-place finishes that suggest a horse running consistently but not quite finding that extra gear. Regular jockey Chris Hayes has ridden the horse six times without a win between them, though it is worth noting the two previous wins came before that partnership was established — so this is not necessarily a crisis, just a streak that needs breaking. At just three years old and racing as recently as yesterday, Luna Beaux is very much a work in progress. The Wolverhampton record alone gives the team every reason to keep the faith.
