Bow Bridge was foaled in 2003, sired by Bertolini out of the three times winning Shalford mare Bow Peep. Bow Peep's other foals failed to win a race but Bow Peep was somewhat of an exception.

Bow Bridge made her debut at Beverley in April 2005, aged two years and three days, finishing runner up before going one better and winning at Ripon. Ridden by Dale Gibson that day, she won easily by five lengths. A week later she followed up at Thirsk.

Her biggest win came at York in May when she took the Listed Marygate Stakes, beating Gamble In Gold by a short head and earning herself black type.

Back at York in June she finished third in the Group 2 Queen Mary Stakes, part of the 2005 Royal Ascot fixture which was switched to York.

Bow Bridge was not to win again, her final race being at Redcar in October 2005, by which time she had earned herself a rating of 100.

Retired at the end of 2005, Bow Bridge went on to become a hugely successful broodmare, her progeny including multiple winners Bowson Fred, Towbee and Black Annis Bower.
