About
Capture The Flag is a 6yo b horse from the United States trained by Todd Pletcher in the USA. He is sired by Quality Road and out of the mare War Flag. To date, he has captured three wins. On 2 Mar 2025 at Gulfstream, he earned his most important victory, claiming the $215,000 Mac Diarmida S presented by FanDuel TV stakes. He has been a money‑maker for bettors, and a career‑long backing would have yielded an 18% return on investment.
