BOW Creek is a really durable son of Shamardal who won Group 2 races in three different countries - England, Ireland and Australia - and he returned to Europe to start his stud career in 2017 at the Haras du Logis in France. He will have his first runners this year.

Altogether Bow Creek had six wins from 24 starts spread over four years and earned £381,625 in prize money. Trained by Mark Johnston, Bow Creek scored twice as a two-year-old, coming home three lengths clear at Chester, then three weeks later he won the Dubai Duty Free Nursery at Newbury by six lengths.
