About
Dark Cloud Rising is a 4yo bay horse trained by D O'Meara at Upper Helmsley. He is by Dark Angel out of Aristocratic and has secured five victories to date. On 18 Jun 2026 at Ripon he captured his most notable win, the $24592.00 Cl2 Hcp. The horse has proved a money‑maker for punters; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 25% return on investment.
