3rd 10 (1) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Very progressive and unbeaten (4-4) in his first season last year, culminating in Group 2 win at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) where he won going away; finished third, tasting first defeat but not disgraced, at Sandown on reappearance; may resume improvement with that outing under his belt and show that he's still a likely candidate for high ranking in the miling division this term; big player. |

3rd 3 (1) |
24th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Highly progressive in his first campaign last year and still unbeaten (4-4); won going away from Opera Ballo in Group 2 at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) on final start; remains one to follow and has the makings of a Group 1 colt this term; commands respect. |

1st 7 (4) |
26th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Hammered in the betting on his first two starts and he followed a debut win at Kempton (7f, AW) in January with easy win in Thirsk novice (good to firm) over six months later; looked to have his work cut out in Haydock Group 3 (also 1m, good) but was once again very strong in the market and kept his unbeaten record with a convincing success (Prague and Snow Master behind) three weeks ago; still a touch raw that day and he's starting to look quite exciting. |

24th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Progressive colt who readily bagged Group 1 honours at Meydan (1m1f, good) three months ago, taking record to 6-8; however, appears to need further improvement to defy 5lb penalty and was no match for Zeus Olympios in last domestic outing. |
8/1 |

2nd 5 (6) |
26th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Pulled too hard and flopped in the Craven but firmly back on track with a hood fitted since, winning Listed events over this trip at Sandown (good) and on the July course (good to firm); particularly impressive in the latter event and he holds a Group 1 Queen Elizabeth II Stakes entry; sets a fine standard to aim at. |

3rd 4 (3) |
26th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Won three of his first four races before a staying-on sixth of 16 in the French 2,000 Guineas (1m, good) preceded a cracking effort when close third of 18 in the French Derby (10.5f, good to soft) in June; that step up in trip looked to suit but he flopped at Royal Ascot and didn't finish it off when only fifth of seven in Haydock Group 3 seven weeks ago; drops back to 1m with a question to answer. |
8/1 |

5th 8 (8) |
9th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 100y Class 1 |
8st 13lb |
Staying-on sixth of 16 in the Poule d'Essai des Poulains (1m, good) in May and suited by the step up in trip when close third of 18 in the Prix du Jockey Club (10.5f, good to soft) in June, both of them French Classic races; the big problem is his flop at Royal Ascot (1m2f Group 3, good to firm) but he's one to take very seriously if that can be forgiven. |
3/1 |
|
10th 3 (5) |
19th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Staying-on sixth of 16 in the Group 1 Poule d'Essai des Poulains (1m, good; unraced on faster) last month and suited by the step up in trip when close third of 18 in the Group 1 Prix du Jockey Club 18 days ago (10.5f, good to soft; Trinity College a head further back in fourth); leading form claims. |

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. |

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. |

2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Failed to build on a decent fourth at Lingfield (1m2f) in February when behind Blue Rc at Newcastle (1m) on Good Friday but the fact he made all in this race off 8lb lower last year means a revival can't be discounted, particularly as he's well drawn to attack again; tongue-tied first time. |
13/2 |

8th 9 (5) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Quiet in Dubai in January but he returned to Britain with a good fourth at Lingfield (1m2f) five weeks ago; now 6lb lower than when winning the Thirsk Hunt Cup last May and he has the ability to feature. |
25/1 |

4th 4 (5) |
27th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Often front runs; below par in three outings at Meydan last month (including dirt) but well treated if a return to Britain sparks a revival having landed last year's Thirsk Hunt Cup off 6lb higher; Tapeta winner at the start of his career. |

2nd 2 (7) |
6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Impressed when winning two fast-ground novices at Yarmouth (7f/1m) just over a year apart; too keen when sixth to Zeus Olympios in 1m Group races at Haydock (led) and Newmarket (held up) in the autumn; has switched from Tom Dascombe to Andrew Balding ahead of reappearance (same owners); also gelded which could help to settle him down; Double Rush's exploits this spring underline the yard's prowess with new recruits and this one has similar potential. |
3/1 |

6th 6 (5) |
26th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Unbeaten in two fast-ground novices at Yarmouth just over a year apart, impressing with the way he drew clear late on over 1m in August; up in grade but went off too hard when fading to finish sixth behind Zeus Olympios in Haydock Group 3 (1m, good) three weeks ago; bundles to find but he's the type to run above himself on a track that might favour speed; hood added. |
20/1 |

6th 8 (2) |
6th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 37y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Unbeaten in two fast-ground novices at Yarmouth just over a year apart, impressing with the way he drew clear late on over 1m on return three weeks ago; definitely more to come but this requires a fairly big chunk of improvement; the ground is almost certain to be slower this time but the same connections' useful half-brother Auld Toon Loon is very much at home on good or softer. |
