About
Protected is a 4yo dk b/br horse from the United States trained by Carlos F. Martin. He is by Maximum Security out of Ever Always. He has earned three wins so far, highlighted by a victory on 26 Apr 2025 at Aqueduct, securing the $80,000 MD purse. The animal has proven profitable for bettors; a career‑long backing would have delivered a 22% return on investment.
