Matins

William Haggas trains Matins at his Newmarket yard, which has already sent out 170 winners this season — a formidable win rate that reflects the quality of horses passing through. For a 3-year-old to arrive in the yard and hit the ground running with three wins on the bounce is the sort of form that gets people talking. The horse is still active and racing regularly, having stepped out just a day ago, which suggests the team has confidence in its fitness and readiness for more opportunities. Three wins from three races is the kind of start that separates genuine prospects from the ordinary, and at this stage in its career, Matins has given every indication that it belongs in better company.
