Half-brother to winners Dubai Beauty (7f 2yo; RPR 103) and Petticoat (7f/1m; 102). Considered one of the top performers across the globe, winning 20 races, nine of those coming at the highest level. Has recorded Racing Post Ratings of 120 or above on 11 separate occasions, including when winning the Dubai Sheema Classic at Meydan in March 2024 and the Breeders' Cup Turf in November that year. Not far off his best when fourth in the Sheema Classic at Meydan in April and gained yet another Group race win on his first try at 1m6f in the Yorkshire Cup at York the following month. Dropped back to 1m4f when landing the Hardwicke Stakes at Royal Ascot and performed well to finish third in the King George VI And Queen Elizabeth Stakes over the same C&D subsequently, having been caught in traffic at a vital stage. Back to winning ways with a narrow victory in the Grosser Preis von Berlin at Hoppegarten in August 2025 before landing another Grade 1 at Belmont At The Big A. Currently, win and place, he has amassed 11,269,144 GBP.
