5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Won this last year (good); in and out since but he returned to form with a win in the Group 3 Phoenix Sprint at the Curragh (6f, good to firm) four weeks ago; showed promise on sole encounter with good to soft ground (unraced on softer); entitled to respect. |

1st 2 (1) |
9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Won the Sprint Cup at Haydock last season when his form also featured a fine second in the July Cup; towards the rear in this year's edition of the Newmarket showpiece last month; previously found 5f a bit sharp in the King Charles III Stakes at Royal Ascot; best treated at the weights but questions to answer. |

13th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 143y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Lightly raced 3yo whose best effort by some way came when second in Group 3 at Ascot (6f, good to firm) in April; that form has worked out well, with winner Big Mojo landing last week's Sprint Cup and third-placed Ain't Nobody taking second in the Nunthorpe, and he had an excuse (finished lame) when down the field in Group 1 Commonwealth Cup on his only subsequent outing; has since changed trainers (same ownership and stable); may still be unexposed. |
14/1 |

20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Fourth in Group 3 Greenham (7f, good) and improved again to keep on for close second in Group 3 Trial over C&D (good to firm); had the benefit of race fitness in the latter, unlike Big Mojo (first) and Ain't Nobody (third), but should finish to good effect in this big field; a visor goes on; each-way possible. |
66/1 |
|
2nd 7 (7) |
30th Apr 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Has run four times and won novice races at Redcar (6f, good to firm) and at Lingfield (6f, AW; last month); hasn't run badly in Group 3s on his other two outings, the latest in the Greenham (7f) this month, but it's likely he'll need to take a sizeable step forward today. |

22nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Runner-up in last season's Group 1 Nunthorpe at York and he would be hard to beat on these terms if returning to that level; 2026 campaign has been fairly disappointing but the return to faster ground will help. |
9/4 |
|
7th 2 (8) |
30th Aug 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Last summer's Nunthorpe second was a clear personal best; this season has been a struggle, including in this season's Nunthorpe nine days ago (first run after a gelding operation); not sure he wants the ground too testing and others look stronger. |
7/1 |
|
13th 1 (6) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
10st 1lb |
Rose far above his previous form when second of 17 to Asfoora in this race (100-1) last year in first-time cheekpieces but their effect was fleeting and subsequent runs, including in a handicap, don't offer much hope today; has now been gelded. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Good fourth in the Group 3 Commonwealth Cup Trial here (6f, good to firm) in April 2025 but his subsequent stand-out performances, including a commanding win at Haydock (7f) two starts ago, have come on soft ground; given today's forecast conditions it may prove best to look elsewhere. |
40/1 |
|
1st 1 (2) |
5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 212y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Only 2-19 but well handicapped on his soft-ground form and back on a slower surface (good to soft) at Newbury three months ago (7f) he beat all bar last week's impressive Goodwood winner Forty Years On; should have every chance if fit enough to do himself justice. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 3 (11) |
11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Soundly beaten on final two runs last year (1m, AW) and same story on his three outings this spring (6f, AW/good/good to firm); arrives with something to prove but he's 5lb lower than when runner-up over C&D (soft) last October and the return to slow ground could facilitate a major revival. |

20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Won Group 3/Group 2 races at Chantilly last summer (6f, good to soft); fair efforts the last twice, fifth to Big Mojo over C&D (good to firm) then fourth to Rayevka at Chantilly (6f, good to soft), but needs something extra; visor worn for last two starts is now discarded. |

5th 2 (8) |
30th Apr 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
All six starts have been on ground slower than good; won Group 3 and Group 2 races over 6f at Chantilly last summer before creditable fourth in the Group 1 Prix Morny; soundly beaten fourth on reappearance in Deauville Group 3 but may have needed the run and is not ruled out in a first-time visor. |

19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Made all to win last season's Silver Cup off a 5lb lower mark; has yet to beat a rival in 2026 and although getting back on soft ground will help, he is not easily recommended; now hooded. |
16/1 |

21th 7 (2) |
19th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Won last season's Ayr Silver Cup off a 5lb lower mark; has not had much luck this year, banging his head in the stalls in the Wokingham and then suffering a slipped saddle at Goodwood three weeks ago; for one so well suited by 6f and slow ground, today's test may be insufficient. |

2nd Aug 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Godolphin gelding whose productive spell (at 6f-1m) featured wins in Doncaster sales race and Meydan conditions event; has become exposed since and came up short in Newmarket handicap (6f) most recently. |
20/1 |

3 (10) |
10th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Two wins as a 2yo, notably a sales race at Doncaster's St Leger meeting (6.5f, good), and he also won a 1m conditions event in Dubai in January; unplaced in two runs back in Britain this spring/summer and a personal best will be required to take this. |

Fair third on debut at Pontefract (6f, good to firm) last August then won at Kempton (6f, AW), before good third of six in the Group 1 Middle Park at Newmarket (6f, soft; beaten just over 5l); this half-brother to Group 1 winner Sioux Nation is open to further improvement and is not discounted. |

19th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 1lb |
Started his career with a progressive spell on AW that culminated in Listed success; has failed to transfer that form to turf since and may be more interesting when returned to an artificial surface. |
12/1 |
|
5th 5 (6) |
12th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Very progressive on AW this year, including a 7f Listed race win at Lingfield, but below that level switched to turf the last twice; bit too soon to suggest he won't prove fully effective on the grass but he has it prove for now. |
8/1 |
|
3 (1) |
6th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Unraced at two; very progressive on AW this year, winning Listed event at Lingfield (sole 7f attempt) the final time; disappointing favourite at Ascot (6f Group 3) on the switch to turf but can't be written off; may still have more to offer. |

Went very close in the Group 2 Coventry Stakes over C&D (good to firm) at last year's Royal meeting and he got back on track with a Group 3 win at Chantilly (6f, good) last September when last seen; reappears with yard in fine form and he could play a leading role. |

30th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
£220,000 breeze-up buy; won at Ayr and ran on strongly to miss out narrowly at Royal Ascot in the Coventry (6f, good to firm; Cool Hoof Luke close up) in which the winner raced on a different part of the track; however, that race was dominated by outsiders in a modest time and he was alarmingly weak in the betting before beating only one home in the July Stakes at Newmarket behind Aomori City; could improve for today's longer trip but he'll need to. |
