4th 1 (4) |
16th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Looked a smart prospect when winning a maiden at Leicester (1m2f, good) in April and a novice from off the pace at Kempton (1m3f, AW) in July; in which case, even though there's another unbeaten handicap debutant in this field, he should have bright prospects. |

9th Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 2 |

Looked a smart prospect when making a winning debut at Leicester (1m2f, good) in April; carries a penalty but must go close. |

26th Apr 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Kingman colt; 11th foal; brother to 1m 2yo winner Monsoon Moon (RPR 90) and half-brother to six further winners including St Leger hero Logician and Okeechobee (1m-1m2f; Group 3; 118); dam 1m winner (103), half-sister to 1m1f Group 1 winner Cityscape; lots to like on paper and Oisin Murphy does well for the yard. |

25th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Record is only 1-12 and most of his form is over middle distances; however, looks a possible danger at this level provided he's suited by returning to 1m for first time since debut. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 6 (2) |
28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Runner-up last July-October on three of his first four starts for this yard and he again finished second on this month's reappearance at Thirsk (1m4f, good), albeit no match for the winner; he could build on that latest effort and is not discounted. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 5f 188y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Won the C&D Melrose Handicap (good to firm) last August, before the St Leger proved too tough; gelded soon after and creditable third in Saudi Arabia (1m7f) in February, but he needs to bounce back with a big career best after his heavy defeat in 2m Ascot Group 3 (9-1) two weeks ago. |
25/1 |
|
8th 8 (8) |
1st May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 209y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Won the Melrose Handicap at York (1m6f, good to firm) last August, before the St Leger proved too tough; gelded soon after and ran well when third in Saudi Arabia (1m7f) in February; runner-up Tabletalk conceded him 11lb that day and it's only 1lb today, but this 4yo should retain potential for 2m+. |
9/2 |
|
7th 7 (5) |
13th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 6f 115y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Five races and highly progressive, winning three; penultimate start saw him take a handicap at Sandown (1m6f, good) from Pendragon, whose next race saw him take second in yesterday's Doncaster Cup; latest start was the prestigious Melrose Handicap at York (1m6f, good to firm) in which his battling qualities were again strongly in evidence and he won on the nod; a promising stayer, for sure, and that's twice he's pulled it out of the fire but the St Leger is a much more demanding task. |

18th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Improved with each of his three qualifying runs, culminating in a clear second behind a useful rival in Newmarket novice (1m, good to firm) last June; left Charlie Appleby for 80,000gns since; returns after almost a year off but he's bred to stay this new trip and is open to more progress on handicap/stable debut; interesting contender. |
15/8 |
|
2nd 5 (4) |
21st Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Half-brother to St Leger winner Eldar Eldarov; fourth in a 1m Kempton novice (AW) and 1m2f Leicester maiden (good) six months apart; subsequently gelded; the Leicester form has been boosted but it remains to be seen whether this drop back to 1m is ideal. |
4/1 |
|
4th 4 (9) |
26th Apr 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
360,000gns yearling and a half-brother to St Leger winner Eldar Eldarov; posted an ordinary RPR when a one-paced fourth at Kempton in October but now goes beyond 1m and should make a better 3yo. |

31st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Two novice wins last May/June (1m2f, good to firm) and back on track when third in handicap at Kempton (1m4f, AW) last month; down the field at Ascot (1m4f, good to firm) since on first run since being gelded but this 4yo remains lightly raced and is not written off. |
7/1 |
|
10th 12 (8) |
9th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 211y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Pair of 1m2f novice wins on good to firm at the start of last summer; disappointed in handicaps on final two starts last year but got his career back on track when third of nine in 1m4f Kempton handicap on reappearance 33 days ago; subsequently gelded; surprise if he's reached his limit after six starts. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 5 (4) |
6th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
All races at 1m2f on turf, winning two novices in the first half of 2025; dropped right out on handicap debut at Glorious Goodwood (11-1) and he didn't fare much better at Newbury in September; it could go either way on AW debut but this new trip could suit; thereabouts if it does. |

19th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Ordinary RPRs in a couple of maidens 12 months apart, last of nine at Yarmouth (1m) for new yard latest; this 4yo seems likely to be more interesting in handicaps shortly. |

9th 1 (4) |
30th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 3y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Dam 7f 2yo/1m Listed winner who was runner-up in 1,000 Guineas; 18-1 from 12-1, faded into sixth of ten in maiden at Leicester (1m2f, good) last April; left Richard Hannon for 25,000gns in July, before gelding and wind operations early this year; work to do. |

First foal out of a 7f 2yo/1m Listed winner and runner-up in 1,000 Guineas; needs a close look in the market. |

26th Apr 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
First foal; dam tailed off in a bumper and half-sister to winners Grand Canyon (1m1f/1m2f Flat and 2m hurdle) and Alquimia (7f/1m); wouldn't be the obvious answer to a race of this nature; stablemate Serenity Blue is far more appealing on paper. |

10st 12lb |
Won a Class 6 handicap on the Flat last year over 1m3f (on good ground); ran better on his hurdle debut at Hexham (good to soft) than his margin of defeat may suggest; this surface will suit him better. |

9th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Fair Flat performer, winner of a 11.5f handicap on good at Lingfield for James Owen last summer; fair sixth on AW over 2m on third start for current yard last time; quite interesting now hurdling. |

6th 6 (8) |
28th Apr 2026 Standard 2m 0f 102y Class 6 |

Sole win came at Lingfield (11.6f, good; first-time cheekpieces) for James Owen last June, but out of the frame in two starts on the AW since returning for this yard last month; didn't enjoy a clear run on either occasion, but he still needs to step up. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Latest effort when eighth of 11 here (11.5f, good to firm) was comfortably his best for this yard but that still leaves him with work to do. |
33/1 |

8th 7 (11) |
7th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
A fair 1m2f maiden at his best for Ralph Beckett but he's yet to offer much for his current yard, beating just two in 1m handicap at Bath last month; not easy to warm to. |

20th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Well beaten in three maiden/novice runs but there was more promise to be gleaned from his handicap debut fourth at Wolverhampton (1m6f, AW; well supported) in January, a race where he still looked to be learning his craft; the hood worn on that occasion is now dispensed with; capable of better. |
4/1 |

7 (8) |
10th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Has smart pedigree but he finished tailed off in sole run (1m2f, good) for Charlie Appleby in April; changed hands for 5,000gns during the summer and is best watched on return for new yard. |
100/1 |
|
10th 10 (3) |
26th Apr 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Eighth foal; closely related to winners Sayyida (Group-placed 1m4f; RPR 104) and Commanding Prince (7f/1m; 90) and half-brother to Derby winner Masar; top pedigree but already gelded and William Buick rides his stablemate. |
