Wild Thoughts
Wild Thoughts is the kind of horse that looks ordinary on paper until you notice the partnership with
Saffie Osborne. The 3-year-old has won 4 of 11 races so far, an impressive 36% win rate, but the real story sits in those numbers: whenever Osborne gets the leg up, the horse almost doesn't lose. They have won 4 times from 5 races together, an 80% success rate that speaks to something clicking between rider and animal. That kind of understanding doesn't happen by accident. Trained by
Richard Spencer at Newmarket, Wild Thoughts is part of a yard that has sent out 30 winners this season alone, so the infrastructure around the horse is solid.

🔍 Full Analysis
TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
The most interesting thing about Wild Thoughts is its obvious preference for middle distances. Over 7 furlongs to a mile, the horse has won 2 of 3 races, a 67% win rate that suggests it finds its sweet spot at that trip. Its first career win came at Redcar on 20 April 2026, and it struck again at Windsor on 11 May—three months ago now. That's a dry spell for a horse that has shown it can win regularly, though recent form offers hope. In its last six races, Wild Thoughts has picked up two wins sandwiched between some closer finishes: a second place just three weeks back and another second place five weeks before that. It raced just a day ago, still very much active, so the team clearly believes there is more to come from this one. If Osborne stays in the saddle and the race setup suits those middle distances, Wild Thoughts could easily get back to winning ways.
