The racehorse was bred by Joe Crowley, and Anne-Marie and Aidan O’Brien; the latter also trained him.
Rock of Gibraltar was the first ever horse to win seven successive Group 1 races in the Northern Hemisphere breaking Mill Reef’s 30-year-old record, before finishing second to Domedriver in the 2002 Breeders' Cup Mile.
