26th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 56y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Placed in Group 3/Listed races last year for Edward O'Grady and bolted up in handicap at Epsom (1m2f, good to soft) last month on second start for this yard; unable to reproduce that form in Listed race at Royal Ascot but maybe didn't handle the fast ground; could go well if conditions suit. |

17th Jun 2025 Good 1m 1f 212y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Placed at Group 3 and Listed level last year; recorded a really smart handicap performance when making his second start for Richard Fahey a winning one on reappearance at the recent Epsom Derby meeting (1m2f, good to soft), pulling 4l clear; a fairly quick turnaround is a slight worry after such a big effort but he's bang there on form; has raced only on going softer than good. |

Won Leopardstown maiden (1m, heavy) last April on debut for Edward O'Grady; minor honours in his two Group 3s and three Listed events, on last two occasions bang there on testing ground over about 1m4f in France (stable debut latest); starts new season gelded and needs a second look. |

9st 8lb |
Gained second heavy-ground win in a conditions race at this venue (7f) last September; yet to win a handicap; well supported in three of her four races this term, including the Irish Lincoln; has not run to expectations; new headgear combination tried. |

Gained second heavy ground win in conditions race at Gowran (7f) last September; yet to win a handicap, well held both starts this term at the Curragh (well-backed favourite for the Irish Lincoln on return), never counting over 1m2f latest; bit to prove now. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 5 |
11st 11lb |
Built on the promise of his seasonal return when a close second at Warwick (2m, good) last month, despite making a mistake at the last; a 5lb rise asks a little more, though Lewis Stones's 3lb claim helps offset that, and he still looks favourably treated on his best Flat form; with further progress likely, he's high on the shortlist. |

Sole success on the Flat came in a Sandown maiden in 2023 when trained by Alan King; no joy in three runs over hurdles; sold for 10,000gns to join new yard in October; makes handicap debut and probably best watched for now. |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Unraced on soft; record of 0-7 since debut success but is heading back in the right direction, having posted form figures of 432 this term, latest effort in notable handicap at Hamilton (1m4f, good to firm); turn looks near. |

22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 15y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who has returned this season having been gelded, keeping on well for fourth at Epsom (1m2f, good to soft) and doing likewise when third of 18 at Glorious Goodwood (1m2f, good); this step back up in trip looks the right move and he's high on the list. |

Lightly raced 4yo who was not seen last year after a Group 2 at Royal Ascot; 11-2 for handicap debut on Oaks day at Epsom (1m2f, good to soft) on reappearance, hanging left on the camber but making late headway into fourth of 13, up with his best form; has the same mark today and clear chance he can build on that performance. |

9st 10lb |
Blinkers reinstated for last two starts, on first occasion making most to score by 6l in a six-runner race at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm); had this 10lb higher mark when fair fifth of 13 at Epsom (1m2f, good to soft) two weeks ago, galloping on as if a return to this trip (he won a 1m4f novice last term) would be okay; needs to resume improvement, though. |
14/1 |

5th 2 (5) |
6th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Came up shy in his first three handicaps but, with blinkers reinstated, he made most to score by 6l in a six-runner race at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) on latest; more to prove on softer ground and given he's 10lb higher in a much stronger race. |
4/1 |

18th May 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |

6l novice win at Kempton (1m4f, AW) last July with first-time blinkers; has come up shy in handicaps on all three starts since, absent since August (gelded) when fifth of 11 at Goodwood 15 days ago; kept hanging in the closing stages that day and the blinkers are reinstated; unraced on firmer than good; this is a small field but others are still a bit more persuasive. |

Has not made the progress that seemed likely and although she was a close fourth of seven at Goodwood (second attempt over this far) last time, that was when setting a steady pace; acts on good to soft, unraced on soft. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 1m 3f 218y Class 2 |

Campaigned mostly at shorter but latest effort (1m3f, AW debut) suggests this return to 1m4f is worth exploring; back on last winning mark and ran well in sole Goodwood attempt; clear possibilities. |

13th Jul 2025 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 3 |

Looked set for better this term but it's not arrived yet, following what had looked an encouraging reappearance; below form on sole attempt beyond 1m2f, admittedly at 2024 Royal Ascot, and this is her AW debut. |

30th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Can make the running; four handicap wins last year and she looked back to her best when a close fifth of 11 at Newcastle (1m2f, AW; favourite) on latest outing, possibly playing her cards too soon; all turf starts have been on softer than good; may well be set for another bold show. |
7/1 |

26th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Highly versatile regarding tactics; 2-2 on AW (Polytrack last August and September); those were the second and third of last year's four handicap wins and she ran respectably when reappearing at Epsom (11-1; a little better than the bare result suggests) three weeks ago; with that behind her, it's possible she can resume progress; strongly considered. |
5/2 |

7th 7 (9) |
6th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |

All turf starts have been on ground softer than good; won five of her eight races, including 1m2f/1m3f handicaps on four of her last five; highly versatile regarding tactics (made all to score by a neck at Newmarket in October when last seen) and, although she's gone up another 6lb, it's hard to rule out further improvement if she returns on song. |

9st 11lb |
He wasn't at his very best last year but took a step back in the right direction when front-running fourth of 21 off this mark in the Lincoln at Doncaster five weeks ago on first run for new yard; no stamina worries but there is a concern about good to firm ground. |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

He wasn't at his very best last year for George Boughey, albeit he did finish third in the Listed Doncaster Mile over C&D (good to soft) on this card; now down to a mark 3lb lower than when runner-up in the John Smith's Cup at York (1m2f, good to soft) in July 2024 and his new trainer is a dab hand with topweights in big handicaps; goes well fresh and could have a big say. |

9st 8lb |
Getting back on slow ground is a positive and she's 5lb lower than when winning at Haydock (1m, soft) last September, but she hasn't been at the top of her game in a light campaign and a shorter trip may be preferable. |

4th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 42y Class 3 |

Usually kept to testing ground; 2lb lower than when winning at Haydock (1m, soft) last September; has not approached that form since and none of her three attempts at 1m2f has gone well, including three months ago on latest start, so there have to be doubts. |

Beat 13 rivals to win at Newbury (1m2f, good) ten days ago on his second start back from some time off; back up 4lb but he's just 1lb higher than when second in this last year and he's a solid contender. |

Ran creditably over 1m2f on good ground on first three starts last season and back-to-form fourth of 13 at Kempton (AW) three weeks ago; thereabouts if the returning cheekpieces (worn on final start in 2024, below form) don't have an adverse effect. |

Ran creditably on first three starts last season, before two lesser displays in the summer; versatile ground-wise on turf and although he's raced only twice on AW, in first half of 2024, the first of those runs was creditable; the widest draw does not help today, however. |

High marks for consistency of late and belatedly doubled his tally at Lingfield last month (1m4f, AW); better form when going down by a nose under same conditions next time and it wasn't much of a drop off when third at Windsor last week; hard to rule out. |

C&D winner in 2022; an underwhelming 2024 campaign for new yard was swept aside when he came from last to first in a nine-runner race at Epsom (1m2f, heavy) last September, scoring in tidy fashion with first-time cheekpieces (kept since); however, pulled up lame in the November Handicap next time and tailed off at Epsom sole run this year. |

An underwhelming campaign for new yard was swept aside when he came from last to first in a nine-runner race over C&D (heavy; his only visit here) last September, scoring in tidy fashion with first-time cheekpieces and never better; pulled up lame off this 5lb higher mark in the November Handicap on sole run since; good soft-ground record before that and won sole run on good to soft; considered if he gets that ground. |
