Damascus Steel I
Damascus Steel is a 6-year-old with a sharp eye for Epsom Downs. In three races across his career, he has won once and placed once — a record that might sound modest until you learn where both those successes came. Both happened at Epsom, and his only win came just over seven weeks ago, on 16 July 2026. That kind of form on a specific track is worth paying attention to, especially at a place as testing and famous as Epsom.Based on TrackLab's AI analysis

TrackLab's AI-generated assessment based on career data and recent form
His recent form tells an interesting story. He ran last just a day ago and came fifth. Before that, he finished eighth, then won his race. So he is clearly still active and racing regularly, which means the yard are looking to build on that Epsom success. What matters now is whether he can find the winner's circle again, or whether that July victory at his favoured track was a bright moment in an otherwise demanding season. With a win rate of roughly one in every three races, he is not a horse that wins frequently — but when he does, Epsom seems to be where magic happens.
