ENABLE RETIRED

12 Oct 2020 11:22


 

Legendary racemare Enable has been retired. The brilliant bay ended her career when sixth in the recent G1 Qatar Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe, and retires to stud with earnings of more than 10.7 million pounds in prize money.

The hugely popular six-year-old, winner of 11 races at the highest level, secured her legacy as one of racing’s brightest stars with back-to-back victories in the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe and a record three wins in the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot.

Trainer John Gosden said on Monday: “Enable has retired happy and sound after an extraordinary career. We all here at Clarehaven Stables have been very fortunate to be with her for the past five years and to appreciate her strong character and athletic prowess.

“Her daily presence has been a joy and her record in Group 1s including four Oaks, three King Georges, two Arcs, an Eclipse and a Breeders’ Cup Turf is a marvel and unprecedented. We look forward to visiting her nearby in her new career.”

A daughter of Nathaniel and the Sadler’s Wells mare Concentric, Enable won 15 of 19 outings, with her only unplaced effort coming in her swansong.
