Baaeed is a bay horse with no white markings bred in England by Hamdan bin Rashid Al Maktoum's Shadwell Estate.
She was a daughter of the Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf winner Lahudood and a female-line descendant of the outstanding racehorse and broodmare Height of Fashion.
Having been unraced as a juvenile he made his track debut on 7 June 2021 in a maiden race over one mile on good to firm ground at Leicester Racecourse and started at odds of 6/1 in a fourteen-runner field.
He produced a strong late run to gain the advantage in the final strides and won "cosily" by a length and a quarter from Tamaamm.
[10] Haggas commented: It was very impressive, I was thrilled because I wasn't sure about the ground, but every time he runs he just keeps doing that, it's fantastic ... Jim was very happy, we're all soaking it up and enjoying it ...
[12] For his first run at Group 1 level, Baaeed was sent to France and started 1/2 favourite for the Prix du Moulin over 1600 metres at Longchamp Racecourse on 5 September.
His five opponents were Snow Lantern, Order of Australia, Victor Ludorum, Lope Y Fernandez (runner-up in the Queen Anne Stakes) and Novemba (German 1000 Guineas).
Baaeed went to the front 200 metres from the finish and kept on well to win by one and a quarter lengths from Order of Australia with Victor Ludorum a short neck away in third place.
[14]Baaeed ended his campaign in the Group 1 Queen Elizabeth II Stakes over one mile on good to soft ground at Ascot Racecourse on 16 October.
He started the 2/1 second favourite behind the four-year-old Palace Pier in a ten-runner field which also included The Revenant, Alcohol Free, Benbatl, Mother Earth, Lady Bowthorpe and Lord Glitters.
He started the 4/9 favourite in a nine-runner field, which included Real World (Prix Daniel Wildenstein, Zabeel Mile) Mother Earth, Alcohol Free, Sir Busker (Royal Hunt Cup) and Chindit (Champagne Stakes.
Crowley sent the favourite into the lead a furlong out and the horse accelerated away from his opponents to win "easily" by three and a quarter lengths from Real World.
"[21]Baaeed continued his impressive 4 year old campaign with a comfortable win in the Sussex Stakes over a mile at Goodwood, at the end of the July.
For what was intended as his last race, his connection selected the Champion Stakes at Ascot over 10 furlongs instead of the Arc de Triomphe over a mile and a half.
Racing as the heavy favourite, Baaeed didn't show his famous foot turn on the stretch and finished just fourth, behind the surprising winner, Bay Bridge, Adayar and My Prospero.
His first foal was a bay filly born at Haras de la Perelle in Normandy, from her dam, Mejthaam, the daughter of Exceed And Excel.
