Racing History moves up to Group Three company in the Unibet Winter Hill Stakes over 10 furlongs at Windsor, UK, on Saturday, August 29.

The three-year-old Pivotal colt, trained by Saeed bin Suroor, is unbeaten in two starts this year. He was last seen out when taking an extended 10-furlong handicap at Chester on July 18 by a length and a half in comfortable fashion.

Racing History landed a mile maiden eased down by five lengths at Haydock Park on May 22. His only other career appearance came at Newmarket in a mile maiden in October, 2014, when he finished down the field after a slow start.

Saeed bin Suroor said: "I like Racing History. Any rain will help him as he likes good to soft ground.

"He has been working well and heads to Windsor in good form."

William Buick takes the ride for the second time on Racing History who is drawn in stall one. Nine opponents include three-time Irish Group Three winner Fascinating Rock, Group Three Tercentenary Stakes scorer Cannock Chase and dual US Grade Two victor Grandeur.

Godolphin has won the Winter Hill Stakes seven times - Annus Mirabilis (1996, 1997 & 1998), Naheef (2002), Ancient World (2004), Campanologist (2009), and Prince Siegfried (2011).
