25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Consistent nursery form features a win at Leicester (7f) in August and close second at York (1m) last time; chance of defying these stiffer terms depends on how well he responds to first-time headgear. |
11/1 |

11th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Won three-runner nursery at Leicester (7f, good to firm) in August and ran okay when fourth of eight at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) last month; however, he needs a bigger run today against some unexposed rivals. |

11th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Close second at Doncaster (good to soft) and game winner at Leicester (good to firm) since switched to nurseries, both over 7f; raised only 1lb for latest performance and may remain competitive. |

19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
A fair 6f winner for Harry Charlton in 2025; proving consistent without winning for his current yard and comes here on the back of a good fourth of 15 in 7f York handicap last time; needs considering in a first-time visor. |
7/1 |

4th 14 (1) |
6th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Running okay for his new stable this year without suggesting he was ahead of his mark; others preferred for win purposes. |
20/1 |
|
5th 3 (3) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Newmarket maiden winner for Harry Charlton last August (6f, good to firm); subsequently sold for 90,000gns; building momentum in handicaps for his new yard, last time holding every chance over C&D and going down by a length; solid prospects off 1lb lower. |

1st Oct 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Just 1-13, winning a C&D maiden (good) in May, but he had some decent 2yo form and ran creditably in a better race than this at York in June, considering he was slowly away and that test would have been on the sharp side; unsuited by heavy ground at Chester recently but can do better here. |
10/1 |
|
7th 7 (11) |
19th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 6f 17y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Gained a first win in 6f Salisbury maiden in May; best run in three subsequent handicaps when third of eight at Ascot (7f) 15 days ago; in the mix eased 1lb but pitched in stall 11. |
14/1 |
|
3rd 6 (8) |
4th Sep 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Useful 2yo when competitive at Listed level; however, he took a while to shed his maiden tag and hasn't kicked on from that in 6f handicaps; now tries 7f for the first time. |

28th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Won last May/June on first two starts and some creditable runs since, but he's finished held at Newmarket on both outings this spring (7f, good/good to firm), including behind stablemate Talk Of New York; others preferred. |
40/1 |
|
5th 3 (3) |
1st May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Won his first two starts last May/June then fifth in a pair of Group 2 races; twice placed at Meydan early this year but beaten about 6l when third of five in conditions race over this C&D (good) recently and Cerro Blanco may well be the yard's chief hope under Billy Loughnane. |
33/1 |
|
3rd 2 (4) |
14th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Brings useful 6f form that includes a success in the Woodcote as a 2yo and two placed efforts, since a gelding operation, at Meydan this year; a reasonably solid contender over this new trip, albeit William Buick prefers stablemate Talk Of New York. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Off the mark at the third attempt when winning a maiden at Chelmsford (6f, AW) in March and he ran respectably when third of 19 in a handicap at Ascot (6f, good) in May; disappointed over 7f at York 41 days ago but it's still early days, and he might be able to bounce back returned to this trip. |
2/1 |
|
14th 8 (2) |
23rd May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Lightly raced and unexposed; landed odds at Chelmsford (6f, AW) in March and the runner-up has boosted the form; beat all bar two of his 18 rivals in warm handicap at Ascot (6f, good) two weeks ago, doing his best work late on; should be suited by today's step up in distance; leading contender. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 6 (6) |
8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
All starts at 6f; best of two runs last term came when chasing home two smart Godolphin juveniles on debut at Haydock (good to firm) last May; gelded before justifying a shade of odds-on at Chelmsford (also 6f, AW) on return in March; should do better again and this mark looks fair ahead of his handicap debut. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Maiden after 15 starts but has been placed several times; ran well enough behind Cashel Blue over C&D last time but seemed to find this test a bit sharp; has to do more. |
6/1 |
|
4th 2 (9) |
29th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |
9st 11lb |
Maiden was runner-up three times in a row at Dundalk during the winter; not as good in recent months; midfield in 6f Curragh handicap on latest but this is an ease in grade; Colin Keane takes over; high draw not ideal. |

8th 14 (9) |
4th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y |

Maiden was runner-up three times in a row at Dundalk during December/January; not as good in recent months; 20-1 chance when unplaced at Naas last Monday. |

28th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Made it three wins from his six 2yo starts when landing the Group 3 Horris Hill at Newbury (7f, soft) last October; has also won on good ground; carries a 5lb penalty on his reappearance and Talk Of New York may be his top yard's chief hope, but he won with something to spare at Newbury and could have a part to play. |
8/1 |
|
1st 6 (6) |
25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Possibly unsuited by slow ground in French Group 1 last time; solid and progressive record (2211) otherwise, culminating in Listed success at Ascot (7f, good); leading player on that form, as ratings reflect. |
11/4 |
|
6 (2) |
25th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Thrice-raced colt who ties in closely with A Bit Of Spirit on Newbury running; off the mark with wide-margin win at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) most recently; stable has landed this prize four times in the last six years; strong claims. |

19th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Well-bred colt but he didn't show much on his Haydock debut (6f, good to firm; 28-1) last month and needs to leave that form a long way behind. |
10/1 |
|
8 (7) |
22nd May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
£90,000 yearling; fourth foal; dam 6f 2yo winner (RPR 81) from very useful family; trainer's 2yos are going well and this Phoenix Of Spain newcomer could be a contender, especially if strong in the betting. |
