30th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 23y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
425,000gns yearling by Sea The Stars; fair form last July-September on all three starts, though apparently best when off the mark in a weak race at Hamilton (1m, good; made all) on second occasion; well beaten in a 1m2f Newmarket novice on final outing; after only three races, this handicap debutant could still be capable of better but it is needed. |

20th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
425,000gns yearling by Sea The Stars; found a weak race to get off the mark at Hamilton (1m, good) and now carries a penalty against classier opposition; in the right hands to progress, though. |

12th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
425,000gns yearling by Sea The Stars; carried no great confidence in the market at Pontefract (1m, good; 3-1) but shaped with promise behind a talented winner; looks sure to progress with his racing. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Built upon his previous promise (including on turf) to win in good style in a small field at Newcastle (1m4f, AW) last October on his second handicap start; gelded since and this lightly raced 4yo could have lots more to offer this season for his top stable; wears a first-time tongue-tie. |

21st Oct 2025 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Consistent in four starts since his debut in February, the win coming in a 1m2f novice here in March; probably unsuited by the lack of pace when third of nine at Leicester (1m4f, good to soft) a fortnight ago, but despite the small field there is a good chance this may be run at a better tempo; respected. |
5/2 |

3rd 10 (3) |
7th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 3f 179y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Beat the St Leger runner-up in a Newcastle 1m2f novice in March and returned from a lengthy break to push an unexposed Godolphin horse close at Newmarket (1m2f, good), which was probably a fine run given the penalty he carried; could easily be on a lucrative mark and this trip should benefit according to his pedigree. |

17th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Only made his debut in August and has finished in the frame in both starts on turf (1m2f, good); narrowly landed a four-runner Wolverhampton maiden (9.5f, Tapeta) in between (runner-up has won since); still open to improvement on handicap debut, but stamina may be an issue on this stiff track. |
5/1 |

20th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
No more than workmanlike in justifying short odds at Wolverhampton two weeks ago (9.4f) and the runner-up is now an 80-rated ten-race maiden; the potential is there to raise his game but likely that he'll need to. |
3/1 |
|
1st 1 (2) |
6th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Ran to a useful level when third of seven in a Haydock maiden (1m2f, good) four weeks ago, hanging off the bridle; should be more clued up with the run behind him and he's open to plenty of improvement. |

9st 8lb |
0-7 under rules; showed a bit more when fifth of eight at Newcastle (1m4f, Tapeta; first-time cheekpieces) last month, but will need to race with a bit more restraint in order to see out the longer trip. |

15th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Struggled in three novice/maiden races in the autumn (1m2f-1m4f) but the minor promise he showed in bumpers beforehand offers some hope for him in this low-grade handicap; sports first-time cheekpieces. |

A belated debut for this 5yo mare who cost 17,000euros as a yearling; no real appeal. |

20th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Has been gelded since his debut when finishing eighth behind top-class miler Field Of Gold in a 7f maiden at last season's July festival; returns in a hood but it's interesting that his powerful connections have stuck by him; market informative. |

12th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Ghaiyyath colt; closely related to 7f 2yo winner Fairy Cross (including Group 3), half-brother to two winners; a family that his trainer knows well; respected newcomer. |

Solid third at Newmarket (1m2f; form has substance) in latest turf start; gelded since; leading player on the figures and Toby Moore rode two winners for the yard last week. |

20th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |

Quite weak in the betting for his 1m2f novices at Nottingham and on the July course and was comfortably held on both occasions; Mothecombe could be the yard's main hope. |

30th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

30,000gns foal 28,000gns yearling; half-brother to winners Tagline (Group-placed 5f 2yo; RPR 95), Koepp (5f/6f including 2yo/AW/HK; 93) and Ladyleys Beluga (5f AW; 76); dam unplaced 6f/7f (67), half-sister to 6f 2yo Listed winner Brevity; already gelded and stable's older newcomers are usually better for a run, but did have a winning 3yo debutante last month; watch market. |

Travelled with purpose close to the pace before fading late into fifth over 1m3f at Southwell 16 days ago; today's slightly shorter trip should help and retains potential after only six starts. |

5th 3 (7) |
2nd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Five-race maiden; shaped with some promise, beaten about 3l amid traffic issues, at Kempton (1m3f) on stable/seasonal debut; interesting off 2lb lower assuming he builds on that effort. |
7/1 |
|
6th 1 (6) |
18th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Improver in maiden/novice company but couldn't land a blow when nibbled at on handicap debut at Bath last time; hood, which was left off there, returns; probably best watched starting out for Charlie Pike (has left Paul Attwater). |
12/1 |
