Other Trainers

Aged 36, Marco Botti hails from one of the most successful families in Italian racing. His father Alduino, to whom he served three years as assistant, was champion trainer of Italy for more than three decades. Marco rode as an amateur jockey in Italy, riding 48 winners, before continuing his training apprenticeship with Luca Cumani and Ed Dunlop at Newmarket, Saeed bin Suroor in Dubai and Bill Mott in the USA. He began training at Newmarket in 2006. The best horses he has trained so far have been Gitano Hernando with whom he won the G1 Goodwood Stakes at Santa Anita and Excelebration, winner of the G1 Prix du Moulin at Longchamp before moving on to Ballydoyle. In 2012 Joshua Tree won the G1 Canadian International while his American St Leger winner Jakkalberry ran third in the G1 Melbourne Cup. In 2013 he saddled Dandino to win the American St Leger ahead of a running-on 5th in the Melbourne Cup. He took his career G1 tally to four with Tac De Boistron's win in the Prix Royal-Oak in October.
