During his racing career he was registered as being owned by Derrick Smith, Sue Magnier, Michael Tabor and Mrs F Hay.

He was then sent to France and moved up markedly in class to contest the Group One Critérium de Saint-Cloud.

Racing over 2000 metres on heavy ground he was ridden by Johnny Murtagh and won by half a length from his stable companion Drumbeat.

Fame and Glory began his six-year-old season with a win in the Listed Vintage Crop Stakes at Navan,[6] but his subsequent efforts were disappointing.

At the end of his racing career Fame and Glory was retired to become a breeding stallion at the Grange Stud.
