23rd May 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 0f 0y |
9st 2lb |
E1,900,000 breeze-up purchase last spring; very smart juvenile form, aside from when pulling too hard in the Acomb; impressed in winning a 1m Group 3 event at Newmarket in September before a fine third placing (1 1/2l behind Gstaad) in the Dewhurst; now has an 8l deficit to overturn in another clash with Gstaad following his distant 2,000 Guineas third; first-time cheekpieces. |

3rd 5 (2) |
2nd May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Aptly bred, being by Night Of Thunder and out of a mare by another 2,000 Guineas winner, namely George Washington; 1,900,000euros breeze-up purchase last spring and duly made a big splash in his 2yo races, aside from when pulling too hard in the Acomb; showed smart from at Newmarket (7f, good/good to firm) in the autumn, impressing in the Tattersalls Stakes (Group 3) then running well (one place behind Gstaad) in the Dewhurst; yard has landed this prize three times in the last four years; big player. |

11th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
1,900,000euros breeze-up purchase; pulled too hard in the Acomb but that defeat is flanked by Newmarket wins; debut form has worked out well and he was impressive in the Goup 3 Tattersalls Stakes over C&D (good) last time having settled better than at York; looks a Group 1 performer in the making and commands respect. |

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. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
A local runner in all respects and aptly registered his peak RPR in sole Goodwood attempt, namely fourth in last year's Vintage Stakes (7f, good); not exactly solid on his form since but the return to this venue may have a positive effect. |
25/1 |

6th 1 (1) |
24th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Won on debut at Salisbury (7f, good to firm) last June and kept on for fourth in Group 2 Vintage Stakes at Goodwood (7f, good) next time; ran okay in quality conditions race at Newbury (1m, good to soft) in September when last seen but he needs to prove he can cut it off this lofty mark. |

4th 1 (4) |
19th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Thrice-raced colt who ran poorly in the Acomb most recently; good fourth in the Vintage Stakes at Goodwood (7f, good) the time before and drops back in class with a leading chance on that form. |

12th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 2f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Split the ill-fated Gewan and Distant Storm in the Acomb at York; then ran well behind Zavateri and stablemate Gstaad in National Stakes at the Curragh; repeated a hard-pulling tendency in the Dewhurst; needs to settle better to do full justice to his ability; hooded now for seasonal debut. |

8th 5 (4) |
11th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Ties in with several of today's rivals on his consistent Group form since debut win; split Gewan and Distant Storm in the Acomb at York on penultimate start, then ran well behind Zavateri and stablemate Gstaad in National Stakes at the Curragh; took a good hold both times, so there's potential for an even bigger effort if he settles better. |
9/1 |

3rd 3 (6) |
14th Sep 2025 Yielding 0m 7f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Wootton Bassett colt won on debut in Leopardstown maiden over this trip and creditable second on both starts since, beaten 1.25l by Saba Desert in Group 2 Superlative Stakes (Newmarket) and clear of remainder when 1.5l off Gewan in Group 3 Acomb Stakes at York, quite keen under restraint; easier ground here and has to improve to play a major role. |

8th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Ready winner of 7f novice on Southwell AW before highly tried in Group races on final 2yo starts; gelded and had wind surgery in the close season and returned with a useful effort to be third in a well-contested Newbury handicap (7f, good; just behind the penalised Colori Forever) last month; looks sure to be involved off the same mark. |

3rd 3 (3) |
17th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Ready winner of a 7f novice at Southwell on his second start; came up short in two Group 3 events afterwards (tried in a hood on second occasion); he has since undergone wind and gelding operations; hard pressed to describe him as well handicapped on what we have seen but the surgeries could unlock more. |
10/1 |

25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Spoiled chance by going a shade too freely in the Acomb when last seen but may settle better with hood now fitted; scored comfortably the time before (7f, AW) and remains open to further progress. |

28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Highly tried after making a successful racecourse debut at Ayr last summer and he came up short, albeit he ran well in the Acomb at York and when runner-up in Listed company last October; the switch to AW shouldn't present an issue but others appeal more for win purposes. |
8/1 |

25th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Ayr debut winner who has come up short in Group 3 and Listed races on his three starts since and would be a shock winner this afternoon. |
66/1 |
|

20th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Won on debut at Ayr (7f, good to soft) in July and kept on for fourth in the Group 3 Acomb at York (7f, good to firm) next time; failed to build on that when fifth in Group 3 at Chantilly (1m, soft) last month but the York performance suggested he would improve for 1m and he's not discounted. |

42,000euros yearling buy, by Ten Sovereigns; 33-1 for maiden at Musselburgh (7f, good) four weeks ago and green off the pace before keeping on strongly in the last 3f to win by a neck, the front two clear; looks the sort to do a lot better in due course but others in this have much better form. |
