Big Rock, the sensational horse trained by Christopher Head, left punters in shock as he destroyed his rivals in the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at Ascot. With a commanding lead from start to finish, Big Rock won by a staggering six lengths, leaving others struggling on the soft ground.
Unparalleled Performance
Despite being sent off at 5-1, Big Rock's performance was so exceptional that many believed he should have been the overwhelming favorite at 1-5. Punters were left in awe of the colossal winning margin, which was never in doubt even halfway through the race.
French Domination
Not only did Big Rock secure a remarkable victory, but the race also saw a French one-two finish. Facteur Cheval came in second at 14-1, completing a dominant display by French-trained horses in the mile contest. Dermot Weld's wondermare Tahiyra secured third place under jockey Chris Hayes.
Mind-Blowing and Memorable
Commentators and spectators were left stunned by Big Rock's performance. One commentator described it as "absolutely mind-blowing," while punters expressed their amazement at what they had witnessed. One spectator exclaimed, "Jesus Christ – that was good!" Another exclaimed, "Big Rock blows them away!" And one witty observer quipped, "Caught between a rock and a fast pace!"
A Worthwhile Victory
Big Rock's triumph in the Group 1 race earned the winner a staggering £656,000. This exceptional horse has previously shown promise behind racing greats such as Arc hero Ace Impact and star mare Inspiral.
