Sing Us A Song

The breakthrough came at Goodwood in September 2024, where he landed a top-tier Class 2 race — one of the better races you will find outside of the festival level. He went on to win at Haydock Park in September 2025, and his recent sequence of three wins from his last six races shows a horse in excellent form. The two placings sandwiched in that run barely dent the picture; at his best distance — somewhere between a mile and a mile and a quarter — he has won 2 of his 3 races, a remarkable 67% success rate that suggests the trip genuinely suits him.

Beckett's operation is one of the strongest in British racing right now, having sent out 109 winners already this season, and Sing Us A Song looks set to be one of the yard's summer projects. The trainer's thinking, shared recently, is to start him in the Great Metropolitan at Epsom before pointing him at the Jorvik Stakes at the Dante meeting in York. After that, a decision will be made about whether to step him up in trip for the Ascot Stakes or keep him at his current distance for the Duke of Edinburgh — both races at Royal Ascot, which is essentially Britain's equivalent of a week-long championship festival. The fact that Beckett is working backwards from Royal Ascot tells you everything about how seriously he rates this horse.

At just four years old and having raced only eight times, there is every reason to think the best is still to come. He raced just one day ago, which means he arrives at this busy summer schedule in active, race-fit condition. A horse who competes at the highest levels below Group company, wins at close to 40% (3 from 8), and has a trainer openly targeting Royal Ascot is one worth watching very closely over the coming weeks.
