6th 7 (9) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Has gained both handicap wins off a mark of 90, including when beating Aalto over C&D (good to firm) latest start; could go well but needs a career-best performance to defy a penalty; 1lb badly in. |

1st 6 (9) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Promising stable debut in the race won by Superposition last month but he hasn't built on it in either start since; due to be 2lb lower from the weekend; others look stronger. |
33/1 |

8th 5 (1) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Made it two wins in a row when scoring off this mark on handicap debut on the other Newmarket course (7f, good to firm) last May; however, has to produce more than he's managed on his two runs this term; visor goes on. |

16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Landed a second win at this meeting when seeing off Galen, King's Gambit and Enfjaar in this race on good to firm 12 months ago; below-par seventh on 1m2f Goodwood reappearance 25 days ago but this has presumably been the target again; the mount of James Doyle from the three Wathnan runners. |
11/2 |

7th 6 (3) |
22nd May 2026 Soft 1m 1f 197y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Has form on all types of ground; smart performer whose strong CV includes wins in the Vintage Stakes at Goodwood as a 2yo and two Royal Ascot contests, more recently last year's Wolferton (1m2f Listed); best figures give him a major chance at the weights. |
7/2 |
|
6th 3 (5) |
9th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 100y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Gave a typically tenacious display to win 16-runner Listed race at Royal Ascot in June on his first crack at 1m2f; respectable, running-on third back over 1m for Group 2 there four weeks ago, so it looks as if about 1m2f is indeed his trip these days and he looks set for a bold show. |

2nd 3 (5) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Smart performer; completed a notable hat-trick (on good to firm ground) last summer, culminating in Group 1 honours over C&D; avoids a penalty for that success and holds a leading chance assuming he's back in similar form; best to forgive Epsom Group 3 effort last time (unsuited by the way the race unfolded). |
4/5 |
|
5th 5 (8) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Merely mid-division in the Group 1 QEII at Ascot (1m, good) last October and again below his best on reappearance at Sandown (1m, good) in April; however, he pulled hard last time and holds leading claims if rediscovering the form of his Group 1 City Of York win (7f, good to firm) last August; mixed messages in his form regarding the suitability of slow ground. |
5/4 |
|
5th 6 (4) |
24th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Did very well (3-5) last season for new stable, completing a notable summer hat-trick (7f/1m, good to firm) that culminated in Group 1 success at York; not disgraced from unfavourable draw in the QEII on final outing; may rate higher still and looks likely to go well. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Broadly disappointing since proving smart in his early days; form for new yard includes a couple of encouraging efforts but he dropped away rather tamely over C&D (race won by Dark Tornado) last time. |
20/1 |
|
8th 8 (7) |
25th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Finished third in the 2022 Dewhurst; getting on for three years since his last win but he ran well for second at Sandown (1m, good) on his penultimate start; front-running fifth of 15 at Newbury two week ago; new cheekpieces need to spark something extra. |

14th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Below best on final two starts last season and same story on sole run this term, in Qatar in February; also has a hefty mark to defy but this front-runner was a fine second under an enterprising ride in a Group 2 at Ascot last July and has a strong record here, finishing second in this race in 2023 and winning it in 2024; capable of very bold bid from the inside stall. |
14/1 |

27th Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Good second in Ascot Group 2 last time, collared only late having raced in clear lead for long way; made all for emphatic success in this race 12 months ago (good to firm) and commands respect back here. |
6/4 |
|
6 (1) |
12th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 213y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Often leads, as was the case when well clear at one stage before finishing close up in a 1m Group 3 at Chantilly a month ago; that was bordering on his best form and he could outrun his odds if getting loose on the lead. |

15th Apr 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Announced himself when winning Group 2 here (1m, soft) in September 2024 but 0-8 since and he's become a little tricky to place; had wind surgery in December, which might help, but he's at the bottom of the list on RPRs. |
16/1 |

5th 5 (4) |
29th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Group 2 winner (1m, soft) last autumn; has failed to repeat that form but none of his 2025 races (80-1 in the Champion Stakes 11 days ago) were on softer than good, so he could be of renewed interest. |
