Schofield Eyes Second Cox Plate After Everest Triumph, 13 Years on the Clock

Fresh from his Everest win, Chad Schofield is already stalking a second Cox Plate, hoping jockey Ceolwulf will help him repeat the surreal victory he enjoyed 13 years after his first triumph.

The Everest gave Schofield a taste of top‑level glory, and that flavour hasn’t faded. He says the plan is simple: wait the 13‑year gap since his first Cox Plate win, then go for another, with Ceolwulf as the perfect partner.

Ceolwulf, praised for his timing, is seen as the jockey who could bring the surreal back. Schofield’s pursuit has been likened to a determined fan at a party—only with more horsepower and fewer awkward small talks.

As always in horse racing, the outcome is uncertain; a single misstep can turn ambition into a farce. Whether Schofield and Ceolwulf will conquer the Cox Plate again remains to be seen.

Fans will be watching closely as the saga of ambition and timing unfolds.
