7th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Minor form in 7f events on Kempton AW and at Epsom; seems unlikely to find the major improvement needed for first-time cheekpieces and handicaps will be a better fit shortly. |

31st Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |

16-1 and never got involved at Kempton a month ago (7f); likely up against it here. |

25th Jun 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
26,000euros yearling; first foal; dam 7f winner (RPR 83), sister to winners Mr Rumbalicious (2m Flat/2m1f hurdle) and Eye For An Eye (Australian 8.5f); already gelded; drawn wide; trainer yet to strike with 2yos this year; worth noting in relation to stablemate Galileo Island. |

29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 80y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Hit traffic at Windsor (first-time cheekpieces) last month and built on that back down to 7f last time; been put up 3lb for it but this is less competitive and he's high on the shortlist. |
5/4 |

2nd 2 (11) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Gelded prior to a couple of fourth-place finishes over 1m this term, latest at Windsor; gives the impression he may benefit from this drop back in trip; possibilities. |

4th 5 (1) |
23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Didn't progress last season and was gelded over the winter; just a fair effort in a less-competitive Yarmouth handicap on his comeback and first-time cheekpieces (wore a hood twice as a 2yo) will need to make a difference. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 4 |
8st 8lb |
Won his first two nurseries on turf in July (the second in a match) and best subsequent effort when promoted to third over C&D last month; finished last of eight at Newcastle (6f, Tapeta) ten days ago, though, and is already due another 3lb drop. |
16/1 |
|
1 (8) |
14th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Landed a nursery on his turf/handicap debut at Yarmouth (5f, good to soft) in July with first-time visor (retained since) and followed up in a match at Bath (5f, firm) seven days later; has not been in the same form in his three starts since and still to prove he is as effective on AW. |
6/1 |
|
2 (6) |
27th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Had plausible excuses in Class 5 the last twice, hindered by wide trip back on AW latest; may be better judged on July turf wins that give him a 2-2 record in Class 6; possibilities returned to this level. |

12th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 213y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Six-race maiden; runner-up at Kempton (7f novice, AW) in June, and third of five at Chester (7f nursery, good) a few weeks later; latest run was disappointing (last of four) and it is slightly disconcerting to see him drop into a seller in hastily applied blinkers; bit to prove. |
4/1 |
|
2 (1) |
20th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
0-5; shaped well when running on for third of five at Chester (7f) on his handicap debut last month, and a heavy-ground defeat at Goodwood since is probably worth forgiving; the step up to 1m could suit and the return to AW is no problem (runner-up here in June). |
13/8 |
|
10 (1) |
31st Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 5lb |
Now 0-4 but he sat in last of five when third to Sir Albert and Champion Island last time at Chester (7f, good) and was closing on the front two late on; he could easily finish to some effect and make his presence felt if they go hard here. |

6th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Latest run, back from a break in a turf sprint, is best overlooked; holds claims on a few of his placed efforts last winter but did look to find this trip stretching him in one previous go (C&D). |
5/1 |
|
13th 13 (3) |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 2y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
0-9 but placed off this mark in his three runs this year (7f-1m, AW); absent since February and he has a bit more to prove both on turf and over 6f. |

28th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Good run when second at Chelmsford on his nursery debut in December (5f; cheekpieces first time); struggled since and hopes rest on the new tongue tie giving him a lift. |
33/1 |
|
17th 16 (8) |
13th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Ended 2025 with a good second in 5f Chelmsford nursery but he's failed to fire in three runs this year, last of six in 5f Newcastle handicap in February; hood is added after a break. |
25/1 |
|
6th 6 (2) |
14th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
Creditable second on handicap debut at Chelmsford in December (5f; cheekpieces on for first time) but below that form both starts since; blinkers tried last time but cheekpieces back on here. |

25th Jun 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
First foal of a 1m winner (RPR 87), herself a half-sister to a winner in France; non-runner due to a bad scope on intended debut at Chelmsford this month; training partnership had plenty of places but no 2yo winner this year; this colt is in the sales next month; market can guide. |

4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won twice over 7f as a 2yo; 22-1 and looked as though the run would bring him on at Doncaster (7f, good to firm; cheekpieces first time) two weeks ago; career best required all the same. |
8/1 |
|
8th 2 (9) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Scored twice over 7f last summer and continued in good form in AW handicaps in the winter; back from a 170-day layoff here though (cheekpieces added) so needs to hit the ground running. |

17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Unraced on good to firm except on debut (fourth); won twice from five starts as 2yo and creditable fourth of ten here on reappearance; faded right out of it at Newmarket (also 1m on good) four weeks later, which sees him visored today with a step up in trip; may need overall improvement. |
10/1 |
|
12th 16 (11) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
Made it 2-5 in last year's 2yo season when winning at Goodwood (7f, good) last October on second nursery start; promising fourth on last month's reappearance at Newbury (1m, good) and he could have a part to play. |
12/1 |
|
4th 6 (11) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Absent since a Goodwood success (7f, good) that took his 2yo record to 2-5; faces a tougher task off revised mark in this field but may improve further; market support should be heeded. |

29th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Kept on well to wear down Foothold close home over C&D four weeks ago, his first run at the trip; should have more to offer and can confirm those placings despite the 1lb worse terms. |
100/30 |
|
2nd 8 (11) |
30th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Has shown ability in his three starts as when fourth of 11 in a Chelmsford novice (7f, Polytrack) six weeks ago; may be vulnerable to less exposed rivals in a race like this, though. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won a handicap at Pontefract (1m, soft) in October off a mark 4lb lower than today's but he's been below that level in two starts this year, latest at Sandown (1m2f, good) three weeks ago; steps up in trip with stamina to prove. |
6/1 |

8th 7 (12) |
12th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
No show on last month's Windsor reappearance (1m, good to firm), but relished the conditions when winning a Pontefract nursery (1m, soft) in October; interesting if conditions remain testing with a run under his belt. |
33/1 |

9th 8 (2) |
11th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Improved on final 2yo start, comfortably landing a nine-runner nursery at Pontefract (1m, soft) in October; that was his first run on testing ground and it remains to be seen if he can build on it back on a faster surface. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 17y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Scored at Bath (1m, firm) on seasonal debut in April and comes here after chasing home next-time-out winners on consecutive outings last month (1m1f/1m); major player if suited by this new trip. |
15/8 |

2nd 5 (6) |
22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Won on nursery debut at Bath (1m, soft) last September and on reappearance there (1m, firm) in April; merely mid-division over this C&D (good to firm) last month but back on song when runner-up at Lingfield (1m1f, soft) last time; in the mix if backing up that latest performance. |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
0-10 but was only beaten a neck in a 0-60 handicap over 6f here when last on the AW in March; has been placed over C&D and is shortlisted dropped to this level for the first time. |

7th 6 (10) |
26th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
He went close off 2lb higher at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in March and a case can be made on that form but he's been soundly beaten back on turf on his last two starts; now 0-9 and he has to raise his game. |
12/1 |
|
11th 10 (8) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Best form when placed twice on Wolverhampton AW; only midfield back on turf (good to soft) last time but may do better back on faster ground. |
