21st Sep 2023 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Won C&D novices on first two starts and made it 3-3 in Lingfield Listed race (7f again) in March; his form has levelled off since but it is still early days and he should find this a little easier than the 6f Newcastle Group 3 he contested when last seen at the beginning of July. |

Won his first three starts, all over 7f on Polytrack, with the third win coming at Listed level; form dipped switched to turf at Newmarket eight weeks ago; drop to sprinting needs to prompt a career best. |

Two wins in 2022 on AW in Britain; out of form for this yard this year though recent run here in first-time blinkers a bit more encouraging; more needed but remains unproven at this trip. |

Two wins in 2022 on AW in Britain; out of form for this yard this year; has slumped in the ratings, needs first-time blinkers to work in order to bring a revival. |

Close Listed third at Lingfield (7f, AW) in March but unable to hit the same heights on turf on his last four starts and others are preferred. |

9st 7lb |
Ran well in the face of stiff tasks on his first two starts for John Ryan, finishing third in a Lingfield Listed event (7f) and a conditions race at Kempton (1m); did so again, at 80-1 but beaten only just over 3l, when sixth of eight in 7f Listed race at Newmarket on Friday. |

14th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Smooth winner of a Class 4 handicap at Wolverhampton last month; runner-up in three runs since and highly likely she's still attractively handicapped; hard to see why she would reverse Pontefract form with Unequal Love on these terms though. |
20/1 |

2nd 8 (4) |
7th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Took advantage of a drop in the weights when winning over C&D early last month and has performed at least as well in two starts on turf since, looking unlucky not to win when dead-heating for second at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) nine days ago; only 1lb higher and one to be interested in. |

19th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |

Has won just one of his last 17 races and was tailed off in the Group 2 Challenge Stakes at Newmarket last week; would be a shock winner. |

14th Sep 2024 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Has blown hot and cold this season, best efforts when beaten a nose in Group 2 Duke of York (6f, good) in May and when winning Group 3 at Deauville (6f, good to soft) in July; faced stiff task but well held even so in Group 1 Sprint Cup at Haydock last week; has a chance if on a going day. |

6th 9 (17) |
24th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Switched distances with each run in 2023, creditable fifth of 29 in the Sandringham at Ascot (1m, good to firm) and possibly finding good to soft ground against her over 6f at Goodwood since; return to 7f on good to firm ground can suit and may yet do better. |
14/1 |
|
6th 4 (8) |
1st Aug 2023 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Won her first two starts (6f and 7f, both good) but found Pattern company beyond her afterwards; fared better when fifth of 29 in the Sandringham Stakes at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm); drops to 6f for the first time since her debut; handles good to soft but best efforts have come on AW/fast ground; yard going well. |

2nd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Form for new yard this term comprises two placed efforts over 1m and a running-on sixth over 7f; useful over 6f early in career but isn't crying out for the return to this trip. |
7/1 |
|
6th 12 (11) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Smart 2yo for Wiliam Haggas; won a Killarney handicap in July 2024 when trained by Willie Mullins; two good runs for new yard this spring, third at Newcastle and Pontefract (both 1m), and likely to be in the shake up. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 1 (3) |
7th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Listed winner for William Haggas and handicap scorer for Willie Mullins; close third at Newcastle (1m, AW) on stable/seasonal debut; possibilities off same mark back on turf. |
4/1 |
