hopefully they keep this horse in training what a treat that would be for us next season instead of all the arc winners retired be sporting and keep this 1 around for another season especially with the genius trainer like stoute who excels at improving older horses

He's still lightly raced (this was only his fifth race), so there's every chance that we have yet to see the best of him.  The owner's racing manager Teddy Grimthorpe didn't rule out the possibility that Workforce might stay in training: "It's always a good thing for racing for a Derby and Arc winner to stay in training but the horse will be the primary decider".

Categorial yes will stay in training.

Think the reason Stoute hesitated about running in this year's Arc was presumably he thinks going to be even better at 4, and didn't want to ruin him if didn't think was back to his best.

Let's hope so I thought he was going to be yet another colt who peaked on Derby Day then sank without trace. Glad I was wrong.

Is there a better trainer at handling a 3yo kept in training at 4+?
Stoute turned so many 3yo's who never quite cut the mustard at 3, just needed more time before they started winning Group 1's at 4 and older.
Struggling to think of a Classic or top 3yo Group 1 winner that he has kept in training at 4.
If allowed to keep Workforce in training, mouthwatering prospect as trainer obviously believes plenty more to come.

He did very well with Conduit. Also coaxed Guineas winner Golan to win the King George first time out at 4.
