Her one win came at Nottingham just this week, on 18 July 2026, and it arrived after a run of three consecutive second-place finishes. That kind of patience is often rewarded in racing, and it was here. The only blip on her record is a fifth place in her opening race, but everything since has pointed to a horse growing in confidence and ability.
Thursday Girl is trained by Ed Walker at Upper Lambourn in Berkshire, one of the most storied training villages in British racing. Walker's yard has been in excellent form, sending out 76 winners so far this season — that is the kind of output that puts a stable firmly in the top tier of British training operations and suggests horses in their care are fit, well-managed, and placed in the right races. When a yard is firing like that, it is worth paying attention to everything they run.
At just three years old and with only five races behind her, Thursday Girl is still very much at the beginning of her story. Her win rate of 1 in every 5 races does not sound spectacular on paper, but combined with three placings, it means she has earned a cheque in 80% of her races — and that consistency, backed by a trainer in red-hot form, makes her well worth following through the rest of the season.
