5th 4 (5) |
4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Soft-ground Listed winner last autumn; best effort this term when second to Quinault in 7f Group 3 at York (good) in June; ran poorly with cheekpieces added (retained) in a Doncaster Group 2 last month but he's a major player if back to anywhere near his best. |
100/30 |

7th 5 (8) |
13th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Best effort this term when second to Quinault at York (7f, good) on penultimate start; 2-2 at Doncaster, namely soft-ground wins in the sales race at this meeting in 2023 and Listed event last November; interesting back here, assuming he takes well to first-time headgear. |

9th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 135y Class 3 |
8st 9lb |
Made all in very valuable auction race as a juvenile but winless since taking Redcar's Two-Year-Old Trophy six weeks later; looked to be rediscovering his level when third on AW in March and it was a solid fifth of 18 behind Royal Velvet (declared for preceding Group 3) at Newmarket (7f, good) last time; if the stands' rail proves the place to be this could be the day to revert to forcing tactics; interesting. |
13/2 |

16th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Yet to match his 2yo best (included big sales race and Listed wins) but he's only had eight subsequent starts and latest third at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) four weeks ago was a firm step back in the right direction; same mark and there's a suspicion he could be on the way back; player if so. |

Seen only twice since 2024 but ran with promise over 6f at Wolverhampton (AW debut) last time, shaping as if this return to 7f will suit; well handicapped on best turf form, which features two notable wins as a 2yo; interesting. |

Ballydoyle colt who has a very solid record thus far, having won at Naas then finished second in the Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot and the Gimcrack at York; yet to race on ground worse than good to yielding; big player on form. |

2nd 12 (15) |
21st Jun 2023 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
200,000gns yearling who was sent off 5-6 for his Naas debut (6f, good to yielding) last month but was forced to battle hard to come out on top; form doesn't look anything special, but no surprise if he takes a big step forward from that and he's respected for stable that has won this race three times since 2015; middle draw could be an issue, however. |

9st 6lb |
Has been running over 7f but of more interest back at 6f and this is her first run at the trip on a straight track since running up against a success story at York (good to soft) in June; on the premises off 5lb lower if cheekpieces don't tip her the wrong way. |

Unplaced the last twice on her first two attempts at 7f but those were on good ground and a slow surface seems preferable; stays well over 6f and things could click at 7f this afternoon if she gets favourable conditions. |

13th Oct 2023 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Concedes weight all round but has a solid profile, with three wins in a row in selling novice/races (7f/1m, good/AW) before fair sixth in Doncaster sales race (6.5f, soft) and good third on recent nursery debut at Newmarket (1m, good to firm); could be thereabouts. |

Justified favouritism in 1m AW novice race at Kempton last week, adding to his 7f wins (seller/novice) on good ground; improving sort who is now bidding for a four-timer; possibilities if he copes with drop in trip. |

19th 13 (2) |
13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Two-time turf winner who ran well when third at Newcastle (6f, AW) in March; however, the AW seems preferable nowadays and he finished last at Newmarket (5f, good) last month when back on grass. |
50/1 |

8th 3 (5) |
14th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Often leads; first two wins on turf (6f/5f; good to firm) but better on AW and it's a long time since he showed much on grass; slow to find form on sand over the winter but he's dropped a few pounds now back at 5f; one to keep an eye on for yard that has won two of the last nine runnings. |

25th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 2f 43y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Front-runner who defied top weight at York (1m2f, good) a fortnight ago and won over this C&D (good to soft) last September; has run some good races on soft ground in the past; he's just 2lb higher than last time and can produce another bold show. |
5/1 |

11th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Front-runner who won at Chester (1m2f, good) in July and returned to form when third of five in Listed race there (1m4f, good to soft) last month; he's saved his best for Chester this season but has shown promise at York in the past and the drop back in trip is a likely plus; can make a bold bid. |
20/1 |
|
3 (1) |
13th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
This course rather dominates his turf record, most notably with a big career best to win 1m2f handicap in July in good style from the front; the scale of his defeats at other tracks on his last two outings is a concern and although better seems likely on this return to Chester, stamina is in doubt. |

Three turf wins at 5f and 6f, the latest off this mark in September; big prices and well held in four sprints here for new yard and, although this is a drop in grade, he may be best left until back on grass. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |

Several good efforts in defeat against top 6f handicappers this year but he never shifted much in the weights and the return to soft ground may have made the difference when he made nearly all to win the Ayr Gold Cup recently; serious rain would bring him into the reckoning. |
12/1 |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Yet to win this year but he's run some mighty races in defeat, in the frame in the Stewards' Cup and last week's Portland (only run out of second in the closing stages); should run his race again but there will probably be a few stronger. |

Disappointing in sales race at Doncaster (6.5f, soft) in September but lost her right-hind shoe; showed promise on soft/very soft ground in the spring before respectable summer efforts in two Group 3 races (6f, good to firm/good), and no surprise if she bounces back with a big performance. |

Had a good season for new yard in 2025, winning on second start and running two excellent races at Ripon when returned to 6f, notably when first home on his side in the Great St Wilfrid (good to firm) in August; confirmed his liking for that course when winning there three weeks ago and needs to prove he's the same horse elsewhere. |

Prominent-racer; did well for this yard last year, winning at Thirsk in May and running several good races in defeat, notably when best of the stands' rail group in the Great St Wilfrid over C&D; he needs to leave his low-key seasonal return well behind if he is to feature today though. |
