11th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Beat a couple of today's rivals in the Group 3 Acomb at York (7f, good to firm; followed up debut win) but isn't guaranteed to confirm the placings, having failed to back up the form when favourite in the Group 2 Champagne Stakes at Doncaster where he was two places behind Oxagon. |

13th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Both runs over 7f on good to firm; looked very nice when overcoming signs of inexperience at Newbury and confirmed that promise in winning the Group 3 Acomb at York, a race that the yard's future 2,000 Guineas winner Chaldean also won en route to taking this and the Dewhurst; likeably straightforward and it was never in much doubt last time after he raced close to the pace throughout; hard to knock. |

20th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
80,000euros breeze-up 2yo in May (private sale); 9-1 from 11-1 for 11-runner novice at Newbury (7f, good to firm) nearly five weeks ago and always prominent, firmly in charge through the final 1f despite looking green; has Group 2 and Group 1 entry; others bring stronger form but that was a promising start. |

27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Not This Time gelding; fairly useful form shown when runner-up on four of his five starts, on latest back from four months off in 1m Doncaster novice 22 days ago; the form pick. |
8/13 |
|
2nd 6 (5) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
RPR of 87 when runner-up in three of his four starts including a close second in a big-field handicap at Meydan (1m, good) in January; just about sets the standard on his return and he should have more to offer at this trip; key player. |
6/4 |

2nd 12 (5) |
6th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
$700,000 yearling; showed strong promise with his second of 11 in 7f contest at Newbury, doing well considering he looked very green; the form has received a couple of boosts since; the stable first string with William Buick on board and is well clear on the figures. |

14th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Progressive last summer and the form has substance; finished third to the subsequent Dewhurst winner then justifying favouritism twice, the final performance at Ffos Las (7.4f, good); probably has a better chance than bare ratings suggest. |
12/1 |

22nd Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 80y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Built upon very promising debut (7f) when keeping on well for clearcut success at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) last month; can probably improve again on this return to 7f and has a big role to play. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Encouraging runs behind Group-class horses last season; back from a lengthy break and a gelding operation when the workmanlike winner of a big-field maiden at Newbury (1m, good) that's produced a stack of winners; unexposed and respected. |
16/1 |

1st 6 (15) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

2nd Aug 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

280,000euros breeze-up 2yo; finished just behind a subsequent winner when fourth at Newbury (7f, good to firm), having kept on takingly after being held up; a beaten favourite that day but every chance he can raise his game here. |

4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Didn't have to improve to reward odds-on backers in a 7f maiden at Catterick in May; creditable fifth in a 1m handicap at Goodwood two weeks ago and the return to 7f in a slightly weaker race should see him on the premises. |
5/2 |

5th 7 (2) |
19th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Runner-up in a handicap at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) last month and got off the mark at the eighth attempt when landing a steadily run maiden at Catterick (7f) 20 days ago; steps up in trip (his brother stays a 1m) and has place claims returned to a handicap. |

9st 8lb |
Ended his 2yo campaign with a pair of nursery wins; unplaced in two runs in 2026, including tried in blinkers three weeks ago; drops in class in new headgear; not a solid option. |
10/1 |

7th 10 (8) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Won back-to-back nurseries in the autumm, over 6f and 7f; gelded in January; he was last on comeback run at Newmarket, since when he's also finished out the back at Windsor only to be declared a non-runner for having his leg stuck in the gates when the stalls opened; plenty to prove now and goes in blinkers. |
33/1 |

11th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Won back-to-back nurseries in the autumm, over 6f at Lingfield and 7f at Newmarket; gelded prior to his reappearance at Newmarket four weeks ago, a race where he dropped away to finish last of the 13 runners; same mark here and still has to prove his stamina. |

12th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Showed some fair form in three starts over 7f/1m as a 2yo, but comfortably held on handicap debut at York (1m2f, good) last month; may have needed the run after 248 days off, so too early to be giving up on him. |
12/1 |
|
5th 6 (4) |
23rd May 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Fair form at Kempton (7f, AW) and Sandown (1m, soft; three ran) on his last two starts as 2yo and he shaped as if he'd prove capable of better, including at this trip; one to note on handicap/seasonal debut. |
6/1 |

17th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Both runs over 7f; seventh behind the subsequent Acomb (Group 3) winner at Newbury (good to firm) but finished a lot closer to the runner-up when third at Kempton (AW) where he ran on encouragingly from off the pace; shouldn't remain a maiden for long. |

9th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Said to have pulled hard in a Newbury novice last time and has since been gelded; yet to show a lot but is a half-brother to two winners and market support on his nursery debut would see him enter calculations. |

8th 7 (3) |

Ran green and was always in rear when a remote seventh of nine at York (6f, good to firm; 8-1) last month; should know much more over this longer trip but he needs a transformation on his second start. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Unraced on firmer than good except when well beaten on debut; highly progressive in handicaps and won at Windsor (11.4f, good) and Chester (10.3f, good to soft; first two 5l clear) on last two outings; keeps on finding more, and it's rash to say he can't do it again, but 9lb rise demands it for sure. |

1st 8 (4) |
12th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Very much on the up since sent handicapping and he cosily bagged a second success at Windsor (11.5f) last month; up 4lb but that form is working out really well so this son of Dubawi is a big player. |
3/1 |

1st 3 (4) |
18th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Well-related gelding who has done well since switched to handicaps, winning on AW at Lingfield (1m2f) in January and going close at Goodwood (1m2f, good) 17 days ago; only 1lb higher than for that last run and he's an interesting contender at this new trip; cheekpieces worn last time are removed. |
