10th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Pulled up (lost action) at Glorious Goodwood; resumed progress when close second over C&D (good) next time and perhaps good to soft ground was not ideal at Newbury on latest; considered. |

Pulled up (lost action) at Glorious Goodwood; progressive otherwise (on good/firmer) since upped to 1m2f, winning in May/June and close second at York most recently; may do better still; shortlisted. |

21st May 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
His best efforts for Godolphin came on AW; no show in two turf runs for Ed Bethell in the autumn but he bounced back to form wih a bang when making all in a 7f handicap at Kempton in November; a 2lb rise is manageable but there are other front-runners on show and he has a 197-day absence to overcome back on turf. |

14th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Ex-Charlie Appleby; won Kempton nursery in December (7f, standard to soft) but has been well beaten on turf since, latest on stable debut having been bought for 65,000gns in July; bit to prove now. |
16/1 |

13th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Ended his 2024 campaign with AW win but failed to beat a rival, back on turf, in sole run this term (May); sold out of Charlie Appleby's yard for 65,000gns in July; market may guide. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Four-time AW winner but holds dismal claims on his 2026 form in that sphere and his unconvincing record on turf adds doubt. |
25/1 |

9th 1 (10) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
A dual AW 7f/1m scorer in September but he's failed to beat a rival in his four starts this season, latest over C&D; tried in different headgear here. |
10/1 |

9th 8 (9) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Won twice in four days last September (7f and 1m) and he is well handicapped on that form; yet to shine this winter though and may need a drop in class and/or the return of cheekpieces. |

8st 9lb |
Won a 16-runner Curragh nursery (7f, good) for Joseph O'Brien in September last year, but has regressed since, especially in six starts since returning for this yard in July; look elsewhere. |

12th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 133y Class 6 |

Disappointing maiden who was well beaten when dropped to this grade at Brighton on Thursday; difficult to enthuse over. |
33/1 |

7th Aug 2025 Good 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |

No wins in nine and best form was for Ed Walker; very opposable on this year's exploits. |

12th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 5y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Eight-race maiden; not disgraced on second of three outings for new stable this year but suffered heavy defeats either side; too risky. |
