Inseparable duo Crowley and Hukum seek crowning success in Arc

The 45-year-old English jockey is as seasoned a campaigner as Hukum, who he has ridden in all 17 of his races, finishing outside the first four on only two occasions. Hukum would be the first six-year-old to win the race and the oldest since seven-year-old Motrico in 1932. After being injured after winning the Coronation Cup in 2022, Hukum returned this year to add two more Group One races to his laurels, The Lockinge Stakes and, under an inspired ride by Crowley, The King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes.
