7th 1 (11) |
2nd Aug 2023 Good To Soft 1m 3f 218y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Won at Kempton (1m4f, AW) in April; 6-1, good sixth of 19 in handicap at Royal Ascot (1m4f, good) on turf debut, racing in sixth or seventh before challenging over 2f out in a very strongly run race; failure to improve on that when second favourite at Newmarket last month came in a hot 1m2f race on good to firm, so this is a different test, but he now has a bit to find. |

7th 4 (13) |
14th Jul 2023 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Scooted clear in a handicap at Kempton (1m4f, AW) in April, in just a four-runner race but useful form; 6-1, good sixth of 19 in handicap at Royal Ascot (1m4f, good) on turf debut, racing in sixth or seventh before challenging over 2f out in a very strongly run race; lightly raced and well related, he still has significant potential. |
7/2 |

6th 3 (13) |
22nd Jun 2023 Good 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Won the first of two AW novice races late last year; favourite, big step forward when scooting clear in a handicap at Kempton (1m4f, AW) in April, in just a four-runner race but the other three (headed by Maasai Mara) have bolstered the form; late foal with a smart pedigree, so lots of potential. |

5th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Habitual slow-starter who again got going too late to land a blow when seventh of 13 at Kempton (1m3f) ten days ago; the visor he wore that day is retained; has just one win from 15 goes and needs something extra. |

3rd 4 (7) |
6th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Has had just two AW races, including when second as 2yo; sole win (13 races) came over 1m4f at Ffos Las last August off 2lb higher, on the first of two starts with a tongue-tie which returns today; not so good since, with blinkers on last two outings, but the tongue-tie might help. |

Some useful Flat form in 2023 and his hurdle mark continues to fall, but tailed off/pulled up the last twice and needs to turn things around. |

Not beaten far when fifth from off the pace over C&D two runs back and it was over 2m when never counting at Chepstow; this race looks more suitable. |

15th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Third on her first two runs this season (1m6f/1m4f, good to soft/good) and a case can be made on that form but down the field on her last three outings and she needs to get back on track now back down in trip. |

6th Sep 2025 Good 1m 6f 1y Class 2 |

In top form at start of season and kept on for Listed third at Goodwood (1m4f, good) in May; versatile ground-wise; however, she's finished down the field in handicaps on last two starts and has to turn things around. |

2nd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
C&D winner (from a similar mark, beat Criminal Shore) last October; runner-up to well-treated rival over C&D (9-1) penultimate start; reluctant to load, fluffing his chance with a slow start at Redcar (1m; last of 14) latest; possible if back on song. |
13/2 |

14th 5 (11) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 219y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Strong traveller who sometimes flatters to deceive; close second to a recent Glorious Goodwood winner on latest turf start, at Doncaster (1m, good to firm) in June, and also ran well on AW last month but has modest 2-32 strike-rate and others appeal more for win purposes; usually wears blinkers or cheekpieces but goes only in a first-time tongue-tie here. |
8/1 |

2nd 9 (9) |
25th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
C&D winner who comes here on the back of a good second of five in 1m Doncaster handicap last month, just failing; not out of things despite a 2lb weights rise. |

8th Jun 2023 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Went too freely over 1m on handicap/seasonal debut; still has weak form claims but this combination of first-time hood and drop back in trip may prompt improvement. |

24th May 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

31st Oct 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Looked quite promising in juvenile hurdles for Harry Derham in early 2024 but absent since disappointing handicap debut in April of that year; changed hands for 1,200gns this May; probably best watched on stable debut. |

24th Apr 2024 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 5 |

Some ability in defeat on the Flat; similar sort of form in his first three completed runs over hurdles before running no race last time at Haydock; handled soft on the Flat but now gets the chance to show what he can do on very different ground (soft or heavy so far over hurdles) and it coincides with his handicap debut. |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |

Three-time AW winner but not since March 2025, and his record on turf is poor; last off four in Lingfield handicap (1m6f, good to firm) 12 days ago and not the percentage call here. |
16/1 |

4th 2 (2) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |
8st 11lb |
Regressive 6yo who has struggled in five hurdle runs this year and was well held back on the Flat in a classified event here (1m4f, AW) 12 days ago; this step back up in trip should suit but losing run is up to 20 and all of his three wins have been on AW; others preferred. |

Short price for his handicap debut/comeback, having been gelded, but ran in snatches on soft going; got it together last Wednesday though, on to better ground in blinkers, and is the one to beat under a penalty. |

Held back by inexperience in three runs as a 2yo but he's been gelded over the winter and this well-related 200,000gns yearling could take a big step forward now his stamina is being tested; interesting. |

Won a hot Newmarket novice (1m2f, good) on reappearance before good second in the Lingfield Derby Trial (1m4f, AW); respectable sixth in the Derby (1m4f, good to firm) latest and could be thereabouts now back down in grade. |

Derby and King Edward VII entry; half-brother to Waikuku (Ireland/Hong Kong 7f-1m1f, including Group 1; RPR 124); clear promise on Kempton Polytrack in December but, even so, to score with such authority at 25-1 in novice at Newmarket (1m2f, good; always prominent) last month was a huge step forward; due to run in Listed race there last week but his jockey was injured by another horse; work to do but looks open to plenty of further improvement. |
