His other offspring have included Blazing Speed (Queen Elizabeth II Cup), Dylan Mouth, Nymphea (Grosser Preis von Berlin) and Tannery (E. P. Taylor Stakes).

Four weeks later he started at odds of 14/1 for a one-mile maiden on the synthetic Polytrack surface at Kempton Park Racecourse and produced a much better effort, staying on in the closing stages and finishing second by a neck to the Godolphin runner Secret Number.

[6] Pether's Moon began his second season in a one-mile maiden on Kempton's polytrack and recorded his first victory as he led from the start and kept on well to win by a lengths from Thatchmaster.

On his next appearance at Goodwood on 3 August Pether's Moon was assigned a weight of 129 pounds in the RAC Stakes and started at odds of 4/1 against eight opponents including Havana Cooler, Elidor and the Queen's colt Bold Sniper (the 3/1 favourite).

[8] In September, Pether's Moon was matched against older horses in the Mallard Stakes at Doncaster Racecourse and finished third behind the John Gosden-trained five-year-old Camborne.

The colt ended his season with a return to Kempton's synthetic surface and a step up in class for the Listed Floodlit Stakes over one and a half miles on 6 November.

On 1 August started 11/10 favourite for the Group Three Glorious Stakes over one and a half miles at Goodwood against six opponents including Encke, Quest For Peace (winner of the race in 2012) and Battle of Marengo (Derrinstown Stud Derby Trial).

[12] Two weeks after his win at Goodwood Pether's Moon started favourite for the Geoffrey Freer Stakes over thirteen and a half furlongs at Newbury Racecourse but ran poorly and finished ninth of the eleven runners behind the six-year-old gelding Seismos.

He quickly went clear before idling in the closing stages and winning by a length from the locally trained Village Wind with the German challengers Vif Monsieur and Nymphea in third and fourth.

Ridden by Pat Dobbs he raced in second place behind Encke before taking the lead a furlong out and held off the late challenge of Parish Hall to win by a neck.

[14] Two weeks later, on his final run of the year, Pether's Moon was dropped in distance for the Champion Stakes over ten furlongs in which he started a 25/1 outsider and finished seventh of the nine runners behind Noble Mission.

Pether's Moon began his fourth season in John Porter Stakes at Newbury in April and started a 10/1 outsider in an eight-runner field headed by Romsdal, a four-year-old who had finished third in the 2014 Epsom Derby and third in the St Leger.

At Newmarket in May he ran for the second time in the Jockey Club Cup but produced a very disappointing performance to finish third behind Second Step and Telescope, beaten more than eighteen lengths by the winner.

The French challengers Dolniya (Sheema Classic) and Flintshire dominated the betting with Pether's Moon third choice on 11/1 ahead of Sheikhzayedroad (Northern Dancer Turf Stakes).
