About Marcus
Marcus Tregoning is targeting black type and heritage handicaps as he looks forward to a fruitful campaign with a promising team of fifty horses.
Marcus has an outstanding record training winners at the highest level including the 2006 Derby winner, Sir Percy.
His first Group 1 success came in the 2001 Champion Stakes with Nayef, a winner of four Group 1’s including the Prince of Wales’s Stakes at Royal Ascot and the Dubai Sheema Classic on World Cup night.
In 2006 Marcus had his biggest career achievement winning the Epsom Derby with Sir Percy, a dual Champion as a 2- and 3-year-old, winning over 1 million in prize money. He was a horse bought by Marcus at the Tattersalls October Sales for just 16,000 guineas making him one of the cheapest horses ever to win a European Classic.
More recently Mohaather was Marcus’s 8th Group 1 winner with a memorable turn of foot to defeat both the Irish and English Guineas winners in the Group 1 Qatar Sussex Stakes. In a training career spanning 27 years Marcus has trained over 90 black type winners with numerous successes at Royal Ascot and abroad.
