Man of Iron, foaled in Kentucky in 2006, is the son of the Better Than Honour and is out of Giant's Causeway. Bred by Skara Glen Stables, he was sold as a yearling to Racing Partners Smith/Magnier/Tabor, who turned over his training to Aidan O'Brien.
On November 6, 2009, he won the most important race of his career: the Breeders' Cup Marathon. In the 14-furlong race, he fought off Cloudy's Knight to win by a nose.
