About
Layabout is a 4yo bay from the United States trained by P Biancone. He is by the stallion Laoban out of the mare Batalla Sindical and has recorded five wins to date. On 25 Jan 2026 at Gulfstream he secured his biggest triumph, winning the $225,000 William L. McKnight S. Presented By Woodford Reserve Bourbon Stakes. The horse has proven to be a money‑maker for punters; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 192% return on investment.
