Sons And Lovers is a 5yo bay colt trained by J P O'Brien. He is by Study Of Man out of So In Love. As a stakes winner with career earnings of $2,634,454, he is regarded as a racehorse of above‑average ability. On 7 Aug 2025 at Leopardstown, ridden by Dylan Browne McMonagle, he secured his most significant win, taking the $93,563 3yo+ Open Set Weight and defeating Crystal Black. He has proven profitable for punters; backing him throughout his career would have produced a 150% return on investment.
