2nd Nov 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 0y |
11st 0lb |
Dual-purpose Flat, hurdles and chase winner; rated 144 over fences but just one win from six chase starts; pulled up on last chase start in the Galway Plate when the 6-1 favourite; again below best when beaten 24l back on the Flat latest; capable but others arrive in better form. |

28th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 170y |
9st 6lb |
One of seven for yard and the stable jockey rides; dual-purpose; pulled up when favourite in the Galway Plate on latest; neck second behind Ascending on last Flat start in the Ascot Stakes and 2lb better off with that rival now; blinkers replace cheekpieces; big chance. |

28th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 170y |
10st 1lb |
Second of three for yard; ran a solid race off 2lb lower in the Ebor at York in August, staying on for a 3l third (0.5l behind Ascending); predictably came up short in the St Leger here on latest but he could bounce back returned to handicap company. |

6th 7 (4) |
14th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 1m 6f 0y |
9st 10lb |
Sole win (11 races) was a 2023 maiden; career-best on latest when third in Ebor Handicap (York) but has fallen short at Group level in the past and likely to do so again here. |
33/1 |
|
3rd 4 (5) |
23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Sole win (ten races) was a 2023 maiden; twice second to star stayer Kyprios over 1m6f in spring 2024 and Curragh Group 2 on latest outing was up with his best form, albeit finishing only sixth of seven; last year's 17th in the Ebor and 11th in the Cesarewitch, both off only 3lb higher than today, suggest it is best to turn elsewhere despite his illustrious connections. |

12th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Largely below par since scoring at Huntingdon (2m4f) last May but he wasn't disgraced when third of five in 2m2f Fontwell handicap last month; needs to build on it now. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 3 |
8th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Three-time hurdle winner on good ground; arguably ran better than eventual 48l defeat suggests when third at Huntingdon (2m3f, good) last month, after a layoff, and has become well handicapped; could have a say if that recent outing brought him on. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 5 |
18th Mar 2026 Good 2m 3f 137y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Won in a small field off 3lb higher at Huntingdon last May (2m3f) but mostly struggled afterwards in cheekpieces and latterly in a visor; clearly a form contender if he's all the better for a wind operation. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 100y |
11st 2lb |
2-14 over hurdles; is 10lb above last win but has hit the frame in each of his last four runs; beaten just 2.75l at Limerick latest (21.5f, soft); new visor could eke out more, but he would prefer softer ground. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 2 |
16th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 100y |
11st 12lb |
Won Navan handicap hurdle (2m4f, soft) in January of last year off 102 before following up in Fairyhouse novice (2m, heavy); moderate seasonal return at Punchestown but pair of runner-up finishes followed at 2m4f/3m; fair fourth at Naas (15.5f) on latest; solid chance in first-time blinkers. |
4/1 |
|
4th 6 |
22nd Feb 2026 Soft To Heavy 1m 7f 110y |
11st 3lb |
Winner of a Navan (2m4f, soft) handicap hurdle in January last year off 102 and followed up next time in a Fairyhouse novice contest (2m, heavy); moderate seasonal return at Punchestown but good effort when second at Navan in December (2m4f, soft to heavy); tried 3m for first time at Limerick later that month and saw out the trip well for second; he's solid. |

24th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won at Windsor last June for Mark Hoad but form went the wrong way for that yard; no revival on his three runs for this stable. |

27th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Sprung a 40-1 surprise at Windsor in June (1m, good to firm); now 2lb lower but that is a result of having shown little since; handles Polytrack but others look safer. |
