How competitive is the Jockey Club Rose Bowl market? When looking at the over-rounds for the last 20 renewals, the most competitive market was in 2023 when the race had an over-round of 108%. The race in 2012 was a race that was most in the bookie's favour with an over-round of 120%, whilst on average over the last 20 renewals of the Jockey Club Rose Bowl, the over-round has been 113%, which means the bookie expects to pay out £100 for every £113 which is bet.

Below you will find the 2025 Jockey Club Rose Bowl Trends. See which patterns have occurred over the recent renewals that you may be able to use for the next renewal. We also have a section that looks at the Jockey Club Rose Bowl Trend Analysis.

These are the top three quickest-run Jockey Club Rose Bowl races over the last 20 renewals:

  1. Times Up (3:18.64) in 2011
  2. Nayef Road (3:19.77) in 2021
  3. Caucus (3:23.04) in 2012

Looking at the future form, is the winner worth following next time out? Over the past 20 renewals, if you had followed the winner of the Jockey Club Rose Bowl next time out, then you would have backed a total of 4 winners. Backing all 19 runners who have been out since their win at SP next time out would have returned an LSP of +1.64. Whilst we wait for the 2025 Jockey Club Rose Bowl, remember you can get daily racing predictions from the expert tipsters on the racing predictions page.

Over the last 20 renewals, it was Times Up, trained by John Dunlop and ridden by Eddie Ahern, who set the fastest winning time in the Jockey Club Rose Bowl. That runner won the race in a time of 3:18.64 in 2011. At the other end of the scale, it was the combination of trainer Sir Michael Stoute and jockey Ryan Moore with DistinctionI who set the slowest winning time; the race-winning time was 3:39.72 in the 2007 renewal.

What the expert says...
Two of the last three winners came from the Lonsdale Cup: Nate The Great (2022) finished 6th before winning this, and then Al Nayyir (2024) was runner-up before winning this. The 2013 winner Caucus also came from that race.
