About

Argos is a 3yo b from the United States trained by Brad H. Cox. He is by the stallion Nyquist out of the mare Athenian. So far, Argos has secured two wins. On 14 Sep 2025 at Woodbine, he earned his most important victory, taking the $500000.00 Bet365 Summer Stakes. He has been a profitable runner for bettors; wagering on him throughout his career would have produced a 150% ROI.
