Morshdi

That first win came at York in October 2025, in a Class 2 race — one of the top tier of races in Britain. York is one of the most prestigious tracks in the country, and landing a Class 2 there at the first time of asking is the kind of result that makes people sit up. It immediately announced Morshdi as a horse capable of performing on a big stage, not just filling out a field. The second win followed at Newmarket in April 2026, cementing the impression that this is a horse still on the way up.

The ground conditions tell an interesting story too. On normal ground, Morshdi has won 2 of 3 races — that's a 67% win rate, or roughly 2 in every 3 outings. That kind of consistency on a specific surface is a real asset; trainers and owners can plan around it, targeting races when the conditions suit.

Behind all of this is William Haggas, one of the most formidable trainers in British racing. Based in Newmarket, his yard has sent out 170 winners already this season — a number that reflects not just quality horses but a relentless, well-organised operation that knows how to win races. Having a 3-year-old like Morshdi in that setup is significant. Haggas has a long track record of developing young horses patiently and placing them intelligently, so the fact that he ran Morshdi in a Class 2 at York so early in the career — and it won — suggests real belief in the horse's ability.

With the most recent run coming just yesterday, Morshdi is very much a horse in the thick of a season. The recent form reads 9-5-1-1-2 from last to first, which shows a horse that started the sequence struggling but has found real form at the right end. Two wins from the last five races, a top-level track already conquered, and one of the best trainers in the country in charge — there's plenty of reason to keep watching.
