Docklands

Ascot is where Docklands truly belongs. He has won three of his 11 races there, including a significant victory in a Class 1 race as recently as June 2025, and before that a Class 2 triumph in June 2023. That kind of record at Britain's most prestigious track tells you something important about his class. Yet his overall record in top-level races—just one win from nine attempts—shows he sits on a knife edge between capable performer and out of his depth, which is exactly where the best campaigners spend their careers.

Hayley Turner has partnered him in nine races and has won three times together, a win rate of 33%, suggesting they work well as a team. After a seven-month absence, Docklands returned to the winner's enclosure at Doncaster in March 2026, prompting Eustace to set sights on ambitious targets: the Champions Mile in Hong Kong and the Queen Anne Stakes, two of the richest and most competitive races in racing. He was recently shipped to Australia for the Cox Plate in preparation for what looks like a final flourish at the top level. At six years old, Eustace knows time is running out, and so the plan is to make every race count.
