SIR BUSKER (IRE)

TRAINED BY WILLIAM KNIGHT

2016 Bay Gelding by Sir Prancealot ex Street Kitty - William Knight

KVS

Sir Busker is the flagbearer of Kennet Valley Syndicates, a true racing warrior who continues to perform at the highest level. Trained by William Knight, this legendary son of Sir Prancealot has now won seven races, earning nearly £650,000 in prize money and reaching a career-high rating of 116.

A winner at Royal Ascot in 2020, his 2022 season was unforgettable, headlined by a Group 2 victory in the Sky Bet York Stakes. He then produced a career-best performance to finish third in the Juddmonte International (Group 1) behind the legendary Baaeed. A fabulous horse has really flown the flag for Kennet Valley over the years and taken his owners on a magical journey across the world competing on the biggest stage.

Despite undergoing a serious eye operation in Dubai, he bounced back to his very best last year with an unforgettable win at York’s Ebor meeting, rolling back the years and showing he has clearly lost none of his enthusiasm for the game.

He heads into this season as a 9-year-old still thriving, remaining in great shape under the careful management of William Knight.

We look forward to see what he can do this year…
