Acts on any ground; ran okay behind younger rivals at Newmarket last time; losing run is mounting up but he has been placed in this race twice, finishing second in 2023 and third in 2024; again has each-way hopes.

5 Oct 2024·John Guest Racing Bengough Stakes (Group 3) · Ascot
Apollo One has been very unlucky, but he's been giving 15lb to improving handicappers. I think at Doncaster he actually thought he'd won. He doesn't really like that ground but there you go. That's him done for the year and he'll go home and rest now - Peter Charalambous, co-trainer.
6 May 2023·Howden Handicap (Heritage Handicap) · Newmarket
I'm not sure that the rain has helped Apollo One as it just blunts his acceleration. He is not the biggest, but you don't have to be. He has got a heart like his mother Boonga Roogeta, who was as tough as nails. He is just a lovely, lovely horse. I'd say we will probably go off to Epsom now for the valuable six-furlong handicap on Derby Day - Peter Charalambous, joint-trainer.

I would think that Apollo One would drop back to six furlongs for the sprint on all-weather finals day after that - Martin Harley, jockey.
