About
Solitary Man is an 8yo bay gelding trained by E Bolger in Limerick. He is by the stallion Champs Elysees out of the mare Jenny Be Quick. To date he has secured ten victories. On 11 July 2026 at Kilbeggan he achieved his biggest triumph, winning the $99999.00 Cl1 Hcpchnhf. The horse has been a money‑maker for bettors; a lifelong backer would have earned a 46% return on investment.
