Looking at the future form, is the winner worth following next time out? Over the past 9 renewals, if you had followed the winner of the All-Weather 3yo Championships next time out, then you would have backed a total of 1 winner. Backing all 8 runners who have been out since their win at SP next time out would have returned an LSP of -3.50. Remember to use the racing predictions along with the information on this page to find a bet on the 2027 All-Weather 3yo Championships.

The runner that holds the record over the past 9 renewals for the slowest time in the race was set in the 2026 renewal when Al Najashi from Ollie Sangster under the guidance of Billy Loughnane, won in a time of 1:12.03, whilst at the other end of the spectrum, Second Thought, trained by William Haggas and ridden by Robert Winston set the quickest time of 1:10.08 in the 2017 renewal.

What the expert says...
The 2018 (Corinthia Knight) & 2019 (Transcendent) winners both came here after winning the Prix Montenica at Chantilly, whilst the other seven winners came from running on the AW in the UK. Eight of the nine winners won last time out.
