About

Bois D'argent is an 8yo grey gelding trained by Annabel and Rob Archibald. He is a son of Toronado out of Madonna Lily. After a Group One win and $1,890,710 in career earnings, he is regarded as an elite racehorse. On 25 May 2024 at Doomben, Blake Shinn rode him to his biggest victory, the $1,000,000 Open Weight‑For‑Age, defeating New Endeavour. He has been a profitable choice for punters; backing him throughout his career would have produced roughly a 30% return on investment.
