Nicely improved on yard debut to win over this trip at Navan last month, didn't appear to stay 1m4f at Galway 16 days later; could still have more to offer at this trip. |

Ordinary form in three maiden runs last season; similar story on seasonal/handicap debut at Roscommon in May; battled well to win at Navan on first outing for the stable; 9lb rise may anchor him |

19th Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Galloped on relentlessly to win the Derby from Maltese Cross at Epsom, where nearly all the others sank without trace in the gruelling conditions, and ran just as well when he was again ridden prominently to finish second in the Irish Derby at the Curragh (1m4f, good; unraced on firmer) three weeks later, a neck in front of Pierre Bonnard; both of those rivals reoppose and he's now 5lb worse off with Pierre Bonnard, but won't go down without a fight. |

28th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Maiden success was on heavy going and Group 3 Leopardstown win last October was on good-to-yielding; same going description when landing Group 3 Ballysax at Leopardstown, with James J Braddock back in fifth; outpaced on better ground when third in the Dante, 1 3/4l behind runner-up Action; rose to the occasion when prominently ridden in the Derby, with soft ground evidently in his favour; different conditions now, but his established stamina is a significant positive. |

Maiden success was on heavy going; Group 3 Ballysax at Leopardstown (1m2f, good to yielding) on April reappearance made it three wins in a row and his Dante third at York (10.2f, good) next time was at least as good on form; while lacking anything like the same dash as winner Item at York, and also unable to get to grips with stablemate Action, he did plug on as if 1m4f could help; it clearly needs to. |

Second to subsequent Derby winner Christmas Day in Group 3 Ballysax here (1m2f, good to yielding) in April and again finished close up in Group 3 Derby Trial here; long odds-on when making all in a four-runner Listed race over C&D; good second when dropped back to 1m2f at Royal Ascot; has joined Joseph O'Brien from Ballydoyle. |

Cheekpieces fitted in last two races; second to subsequent Derby winner Christmas Day in Group 3 Ballysax at Leopardstown (1m2f, good to yielding) in April and again finished close up in Group 3 Derby Trial over same C&D (good) before easy Listed win from the front there (1m4f, soft) a fortnight ago; holds leading form claims. |

Second to the current Derby favourite Benvenuto Cellini on debut at Killarney; best display at two when second to Pierre Bonnard in the Zetland Stakes; this year's course form involves links to Derby candidates; stuck to his task to take second when Pierre Bonnard flopped in the Ballysax; pick of these on his close third behind James J Braddock and Pierre Bonnard in the Derby Trial. |

Failed to win at two, but got off the mark on second start of this season in 1m2f (yielding) maiden at Navan; never landed a blow on handicap debut in the King George V handicap at Royal Ascot (1m2f, good to firm) last time; capable of better, but has to prove he handles quick ground. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Started his career in a Listed race but it wasn't until his fifth start that he got off the mark, showing improved form with a switch to front-running in a maiden at Navan (1m2f, yielding); saw off a serious challenge that day and there's enough stamina in the family for 1m4f to be interesting. |

Made it four wins on the spin when landing the Group 2 Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot (1m6f, good to firm; versatile ground-wise); down the field in the Group 1 Grand Prix de Paris at Longchamp since but judged on his previous form he could be on an advantageous mark for today's handicap debut. |

1st 4 (8) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 34y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Unraced on firmer than good; won the last three of his five races, making the running when asked serious questions for his first two wins; lost the lead at halfway on latest outing but rallied in grand style to emerge from fourth of five in that Listed race at Navan (1m5f, yielding) and firmly seize the initiative from Asakir late on; looks sure to stay; progressive and has a leading form chance after that latest start, while leaving the firm impression he has more in the locker. |
7/2 |

1st 2 (5) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 5f 0y |

Progressed nicely in each of three juvenile runs, notably making all in Listowel rated race on heavy ground (1m); followed up on seasonal return when tongue-tied in 1m2f Cork conditions last month, dictating steady pace then battling well; Derby entry looks the type to keep progressing and could well improve for this longer trip. |

Modest on the Flat but has taken well to this game; good 3l third behind Minella Rockett at Limerick (16.5f, good) and then went two places better when bolting up at Ballinrobe (16.5f, good) when a few of these were behind; could be more to come and is the one to beat, even with his penalty. |

Won once in Ireland and three times for George Boughey, twice on the AW and in a 7f Epsom handicap on final start for that yard; later sold for 28,000gns; had always worn a hood (also effective in tongue-tie) but went in blinkers on stable debut at Goodwood recently and raced too freely up front; now goes in an eyeshield; bit risky. |

Three Flat runs for Emmet Mullins last year, easily the best when third in a 1m1f maiden at Tipperary (good to yielding) where he was only just behind this year's Queen's Vase winner Limestone; has since had three races over hurdles in France, performing respectably; his Irish stable's only runner on the card and he's of clear interest; the tongue-tie is new. |
