About

Platoon is a 3-year-old colt from Ireland, trained by A.P. O’Brien in Tipperary. He is the offspring of the stallion Galileo and the mare I Can Fly. So far, Platoon has won one race in his career. His most notable victory came on August 23, 2024, at Leopardstown, where he was ridden by J. Cleary and won the $9,000 Boylesports Money Back If 2nd To Sp Fav Maiden, defeating Touch The Sound. Throughout his racing career, Platoon has proven to be a lucrative horse for bettors, providing a 175 percent return on investment for those who backed him.
