Minor promise on debut but showed very little in two subsequent starts; blinkers now on handicapping; worth a market check. |

26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
1m maiden winner at Dundalk (AW) for Ger Lyons in November, his fifth start; absent since second in a claimer over that C&D in December and, given his tendency to race too freely, removing the hood on this stable debut looks risky. |
13/2 |

2nd 6 (12) |
29th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Disappointing favourite when last seen at the Curragh in early June (6f) since when he's been gelded (now hooded); did give the very smart and unbeaten Albert Einstein something to think about when a clear second the time before at Naas (6f); remains promising and should stay 7f. |

7th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Group 1 entry at 1m, 1m2f and 1m4f, as is his stablemate Constitution River (also by Wootton Bassett); can't match his form, having won on debut but come up short in three Group 3s over 6.5f to just over 7f; joint favourite at Leopardstown (7f, good to yielding) on reappearance but slowly away and never showed with any chance; it's possible that 1m2f will see him in a different light but Constitution River looks the stable first string. |

12th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 7f 42y |
9st 5lb |
Overcame inexperience to make a winning debut over 6f at the Curragh; did not look entirely straightforward (hung right) when beaten by a filly, Suzie Songs, in the Anglesey Stakes; doubts raised by 6l Group 3 defeat over C&D in July; however, Ryan Moore sticks with him in apparent preference to the higher-rated Dorset. |
3/1 |

2nd 2 (4) |
24th Jul 2025 Soft 0m 7f 57y |

Quite easy to back when overcoming inexperience to make a winning debut over 6f at the Curragh, with subsequent winner North Coast 2 1/4l away in third; did not look entirely straightforward (hung right) when beaten by a filly in the Anglesey Stakes; had plenty to spare over the third, subsequent nursery winner Stop The Nation. |

19th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y |
9st 10lb |
Wasn't beaten all that far in a Curragh Group 3 despite finishing last of five and took advantage of the drop in class back in a Down Royal maiden on his first go at this trip; that didn't look like the deepest maiden but any further progress should see him firmly in the mix. |

Has improved with every run and showed speed when beaten 3l defeat in a 6f Curragh maiden; last of five in a Group 3 back there latest but was only beaten 5l and he sets the standard on form here; wears first-time tongue-tie. |

Siyouni colt; first out of a Listed-placed 5f 2yo winner, half-sister to Racing Post Trophy and 2,000 Guineas winner Saxon Warrior, out of Moyglare Stud Stakes winner Maybe, family of Derby winner Dr Devious; stable outsider of three on debut over 6f here last June, noted staying on; likely to be a big player here if he has progressed satisfactorily. |

14th Sep 2025 Yielding 0m 7f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Starman colt a 180,000gns yearling; ran away with ordinary Down Royal maiden and again when showing considerably better form in 4-runner Group 3 Tyros Stakes at Leopardstown in July, making all to beat an odds-on shot 6l (7f, good-to-yielding); possibly flattered by latest but certainly going the right way and proven over the trip; yard has a good recent record in this race. |
8/1 |

1st 3 (2) |
24th Jul 2025 Soft 0m 7f 57y |
9st 5lb |
Promising debut in third behind Flushing Meadows at the Curragh; duly landed the odds at Down Royal 16 days later; outpointed by the Ballydoyle-trained Daytona in a 1m Listed race at Naas last time. |
2/1 |

2nd 4 (6) |
5th Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y |

Starman colt a 180,000gns yearling; second foal; dam US 7.5f-1m1f turf winner (inc stakes); promising debut in Curragh maiden last month and took full advantage of that experience 16 days later to land the odds at Down Royal, making all to win well; type to continue improving and should make a bold bid if staying this longer trip. |

13th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Kept to 6f thus far and has advanced his RPRs with each run; hardly has the profile of a typical Champagne winner after five defeats, but twice runner-up in Group 2s (comfortably held admittedly) and a slow start did for him in the Group 1 Phoenix Stakes a month ago; battle hardened and stepping up 7f is unlikely to pose any problems, so by no means discounted. |
9/1 |

9th Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Went close in a maiden over C&D in June on second start, no match for True Love when second of four in the Railway Stakes, 3/4l in front of Power Blue; one of the best maidens around judged on his second to Coppull (Coventry Stakes third) in the Richmond Stakes at Goodwood nine days ago. |
20/1 |

2nd 7 (9) |
31st Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Went close in a maiden at the Curragh (6f, good) in June on second start then no match for exciting stablemate True Love when second of four in the Group 2 Railway Stakes there (6f, good); 0-3 and improvement needed but he's the sole Ballydoyle runner and no surprise if he takes a step forward. |
