Bio
After winning two stakes races in Europe in the summer of 2021, Yibir was shipped to the United States for the Grade 1 Jockey Club Derby Invitational at Belmont Park on Sept. 18. He made his presence felt in a big way. Rating last early on, he exploded to the lead with a dramatic turn of foot and pulled away to win by 2 1/2 lengths. With that win, Yibir earned a spot in the Grade 1 Longines Breeders' Cup Turf at Del Mar on Nov. 6.

With that win, Yibir earned a spot in the Grade 1 Longines Breeders' Cup Turf at Del Mar on Nov. 6.
In the Longines Turf, Yibir was a middle-odds contender but proved to be much the best for the red-hot connections of owner Godolphin, trainer Charlie Appleby, and jockey William Buick. He closed with a powerful rush to win the 1 ½-mile Turf going away to give that group their third Breeders’ Cup win of the weekend.
Yibir is out of the German-bred stakes winner Rumh, by Monsun. He is a full brother to multiple Group 1 winner and $1.5-million earner Wild Illusion.
