Tuesday Throwback Race

Cracksman

We are starting Tuesday off with a bang at looking back at one of the best flat performances of the last few seasons when the superstar Cracksman just swept his field aside on British Champions Day in 2017.

The son of Frankel was a very exciting addition to John Gosden's yard when he bounced on to the scene and was made for the Epsom Derby.

Although only finishing third at Epsom he had a superb career landing Group One's in France and multiple times in England but one of his best performances to date came in his first Champion Stakes.

He gave a very similar performance when he landed back to renewals of the race the year after but his first victory was against a much better field of runners and Cracksman turned them into ordinary Animals that day.
