Lion's Den made a winning start to his racing career at Catterick Bridge just this week, claiming victory on 17 October 2026 in what looks like a promising debut for
Michael Dods's yard at Piercebridge. At just two years old, the horse has already shown enough to suggest he belongs at the races, winning 1 of his first 2 outings. His form has been mixed in the last couple of races — a win most recently followed by a sixth-place finish before that — but Dods's stable has been firing on all cylinders this season with 43 winners to their name, so there's clearly plenty of quality horsemanship behind this young horse. With Lion's Den still racing actively, he looks set for more opportunities to build on that early success.
