Hartnell is well known for his rivalry with champion horse Winx. The pair faced each other seven times with Hartnell finishing runner up on three occasions.[2]

Racing career

Foaled at Rutland Stud, on the outskirts of Newmarket, Hartnell began his racing career with Mark Johnston. After winning the Queen's Vase he was shipped to Australia to continue racing.

In Australia, Hartnell won four Group 1 races, The BMW (2015), Turnbull Stakes (2016), C F Orr Stakes (2018) and the Epsom Handicap (2018).[3]

Hartnell was retired from racing after finishing third in the 2019 Mackinnon Stakes. He will join Godolphin's Lifetime Care program to be retrained, most likely as a show horse.[4]
