About
Layabout is a 4yo bay horse from the United States under the care of trainer Patrick L. Biancone. He is by Laoban out of Batalla Sindical and has secured five wins so far. On 25 January 2026 at Gulfstream, he claimed his most important victory, taking the $225,000 William L. McKnight S. presented by Woodford Reserve Bourbon stakes. He has proved a lucrative prospect for bettors; a continuous backer would have enjoyed a 338% return on investment.
