Trawlerman Dominates the 2025 Gold Cup at Royal Ascot

The 2025 Gold Cup at Royal Ascot delivered a performance to remember, as Trawlerman surged to a powerful victory, reaffirming his place among the sport’s elite stayers. From the moment the gates opened, the seasoned gelding set a commanding pace under jockey William Buick, who executed a masterclass in front-running control.
With each furlong, Trawlerman widened the gap, showing both stamina and authority. The final straight was a showcase of endurance, with the veteran extending his lead and crossing the line well ahead of his challengers. The crowd responded with thunderous applause, celebrating a moment that will be etched in Royal Ascot history.
For trainer John and Thady Gosden, the win marked another high point in an already illustrious season. Trawlerman’s triumph was more than a victory — it was redemption. After narrowly missing out last year, he returned with strength, focus, and a finish that left no doubt about his class.
In the presence of royalty, history was made. The Gold Cup once again reminded us why it’s the crown jewel of Ascot, and why champions like Trawlerman continue to inspire racing fans around the world.
