9st 2lb |
Sister to high-class Al Aasy; 1m2f wins in two of her three novice races; 11-2 in Group 3 at York (1m6f, good to firm) four weeks ago, racing freely and soon in close attendance to front-runner One Evening but both of them faded late on, behind Voodoo Queen among others; it looks as if this drop back in trip will help but others have markedly better form. |

27th May 2023 Good To Firm 1m 5f 188y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Evidently a late developer having been unraced at two and three; has shown a good deal of promise in novice events this year, with two wins over 1m2f (latest at Beverley) flanking a keeping-on second over 1m4f; brings clear potential to this Group assignment and has possibilities if she stays the new trip. |

9st 7lb |
Won on belated debut at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) in February and 4l second of four at Lingfield (1m4f, AW) last time, behind one who was very impressive when following up seven days later; this well-bred filly is a strong candidate for her top trainer, who is 6-20 (30%) here in the last five years. |

15th Oct 2024 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Hasn't had much go right in his last two starts and is best known for his Polytrack exploits, as when successful off 4lb higher at Kempton (1m3f) in April; finished second of 14 over this C&D as a 3yo, though, so certainly one to be interested in. |

2nd Oct 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
All three wins have been on Polytrack and last two have been off higher marks over C&D; has mixed record since his last success in April but he was creditable fourth of 13 here last time and has claims if he can built on that. |
6/1 |

25th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Not far behind Ludo's Landing at Beverley before a poor show at Epsom (soft); now 0-13 on turf but he's 3-12 on the AW and that includes a C&D success; nothing wrong with his mark. |

15th May 2023 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Well beaten on debut in August 2021; next seen this year when showing some ability in novice events at Kempton (1m4f, AW) and Beverley (1m2f, good to soft); needs improvement on this handicap debut but he is unexposed. |
8/1 |

3rd 6 (5) |
27th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Well beaten on debut in August 2021 then absent until Kempton (1m4f, AW) this February, where he was a close third on stable debut; he cost 300,000gns as a yearling and could have more to offer; not ruled out. |

3rd 5 (5) |

dwelt start, towards rear, in touch with leaders halfway, pushed along over 2f out, ridden and made challenge over 1f out, every chance inside final furlong, no extra towards finish |

10st 2lb |
Promising fifth on debut at Kempton (1m3f, AW) in December 2021 then absent until stable debut at Beverley (1m2f, good to soft) this April; may have needed latest run but big step forward required on second start back. |

9th May 2023 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |

Beaten 20l when last of five in a 1m2f novice at Beverley 12 days ago (good to soft); bred to do considerably better and could prove a different proposition switched to AW. |

5th 3 (4) |
27th Apr 2023 Good To Soft 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
$320,000 yearling; sixth foal; half-brother to North American winners Drummer Boy (6f-7.5f dirt) and Kitzys Rocket (9.5f/1m3f turf); dam US 5f turf winner; this is a belated debut but he represents a top northern stable and has to be of interest given his purchase price; watch the betting. |

25th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Ended his 2025 campaign with a half-length success in Class 2 event over C&D (good to firm) and is only 2lb higher back here; possibilities with Chester reappearance under his belt. |
5/1 |
|
8th 4 (14) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
All four wins at around this trip including one here (soft) in the summer of 2023; looked unlucky when beaten a head in this race off 3lb lower on his reappearance a year ago; won't mind what the weather does, but stall 14 isn't ideal. |
