Irish-bred Wakanaka began her career racing in Italy, where she won six out of eight starts, including four stakes. She finished up her career there with a 1 ¼-length win in the Group 3 Italian One Thousand Guineas in April 2021.
Purchased by Team Valor International and Gary Barber, Wakanaka was shipped to North America and trainer Bill Mott. She made her debut on a new continent with a sixth-place finish in the Grade 3 TAA Pegasus World Cup Filly and Mare Turf Invitational Stakes Presented by Pepsi at Gulfstream Park on Jan. 29, 2022.

The daughter of Power then finished second, third, and second in her next three starts over spring and summer 2022, all of them graded stakes. She broke through with her first graded stakes win July 24 at Woodbine in the Grade 2 Dance Smartly Stakes, powering clear to win the 1 1/16-mile turf event by 1 ¾ lengths.
