6th 2 (4) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Capable of very useful form but he is 0-12 since landing a major handicap at Newbury over two years ago and was unplaced in the Listed Wolferton Stakes at Royal Ascot last month; supplemented at a cost of £50,000, possibly to act as pacemaker for fellow Wathnan Racing runner Gethin. |

7th 10 (6) |
16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
No win since landing two of his first four starts but has a largely consistent record in Listed/Group company since, including third to Haatem and Galen in this race on good to firm 12 months ago; again ran well when chasing home Damysus in Group 3 at Newmarket (1m1f, good) on reappearance in April; a subsequent Chester run was disappointing but his record suggests he's unlikely to stay down for long. |
11/1 |

9th 4 (5) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
No wins since landing two of his first four starts having been highly tried in the meantime, but he has a consistent record in Group/Listed company shy of the top level (22363522); again ran well when chasing home the smart Damysus on his return in the Earl Of Sefton at Newmarket (1m1f, good) last month; shortlisted with the run under his belt. |
13/2 |

2nd 3 (5) |
15th Apr 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
No wins in nine Group/Listed races since landing the London Gold Cup at Newbury on his seasonal/handicap debut in 2024; frequently ran well, though, albeit with this trip looking a bare minimum when fifth of eight in York Group 3 in August on his penultimate start; can't be confidently ruled out but will need to resume in top order to make his Group-race breakthrough. |
9/1 |

4 (4) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Expensive to follow in Group/Listed races on his eight starts since winning a handicap at Newbury in May 2024; however, the drop back to 1m1f was against him at York last time and he has plenty of form that puts him firmly in the picture today; seems versatile in terms of ground. |
7/2 |
