Wen Moon

There is a very specific version of Wen Moon that turns up when the skies open, and it is considerably more interesting than the one that shows up on a dry day. Over a career of 35 races, this six-year-old has won just 4 times — that is roughly 1 in every 9 outings — but filter those races down to the ones run on wet or muddy ground and the picture changes sharply. Three wins from 10 races on soft or heavy ground works out at 30%, meaning Wen Moon wins about 1 in every 3 races when conditions suit. On fast, dry ground, the results dry up just as quickly as the turf does.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

Trained by Ben Haslam at Middleham Moor in North Yorkshire — a yard that has already sent out 32 winners this season, suggesting it is in good nick — Wen Moon first got its head in front at Ripon back in July 2022. The most recent win came at Musselburgh in November 2025, about five months ago, which means there is at least recent evidence this horse can still get the job done. Most of Wen Moon's racing has been at Class 4 level, which sits in the middle of the British racing ladder — competitive enough, without being the sport's showpiece events. At that level, the record reads 1 win from 14 attempts, or about 1 in every 14 races, which is modest. The wet-ground record strongly suggests the horse is capable of better than its overall numbers imply — it just needs the right conditions to show it.

Andrew Mullen has been in the saddle most often, partnering Wen Moon in 9 of those 35 races and winning once together. The last six runs show a 15th, a win, a 5th, a 6th, a 7th, and a 5th — patchy form, but with that Musselburgh victory sitting right in the middle of it as a reminder of what is possible. The horse is active right now, having raced just a day ago. Anyone watching Wen Moon this season would do well to keep one eye on the weather forecast.
