About

Butch is a 7-year-old gelding from the United Kingdom, trained by O Murphy, who operates out of Wilmcote. He is the offspring of the stallion Kayf Tara and the mare Leading On. Throughout his career, Butch has won four races. His most notable victory came on January 1, 2024, at Cheltenham, where he was ridden by James Bowen and won the $18,210 Paddy Power Handicap Hurdle, defeating My Bobby Dazzler. He has proven to be a profitable horse for bettors, with a 19 percent return on investment for those who have supported him throughout his racing career.
