Without A Fight emerged as a potential staying star in Australia when winning the G3 Lord Mayor’s Cup over 1,800m at Eagle Farm on
Teofilo
A G1 winner in each and every one of his first 11 crops. He’s the only active stallion who can claim this – and one of only seven since the Pattern began, after Mr Prospector, Sadler’s Wells, AP Indy, Deep Impact, Galileo and Shamardal. A burgeoning influence: dam sire of both Guineas winners in 2022, and top freshman Havana Grey is his grandson. 2022 yearling average: €126k with Joseph O’Brien buying his 300,000gns top lot.
