19th Oct 2024 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Won with something to spare in the Queen Anne over C&D (good to firm) in June and did likewise in another Group 1 at Deauville in August (1m, good; Prix Jacques le Marois); runner-up in Group 1 Prix du Moulin at Longchamp (1m, soft) last month behind one given an enterprising ride; leading claims. |

18th May 2024 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |

Acts on soft; ran respectably in top 1m races won by Paddington last season; 2-2 this term, readily winning the Doncaster Mile (Listed) then coming with a late surge to beat Poker Face in the bet365 Mile at Sandown (Group 2); better than ever as a 4yo and may well improve further; major player. |

9th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 6y Class 1 |

Ran creditably behind smart Charyn when bidding for a second success in the Doncaster Mile (soft); only fifth in Group races since but has possibilities returned to Listed level. |

5th May 2024 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
A well-held third in this 12 months ago after winning a Listed race at Doncaster, in which she was no match for a subsequent Group 2 winner in this year's renewal; could strip fitter for that outing and a repeat of last year's peak efforts in a Group 3 at Epsom and the Group 1 Falmouth wouldn't see her far away; dangerous to pass over. |

24th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 6y Class 2 |
9st 13lb |
Suited by ground softer than good; proved resurgent last time in Redcar Listed contest he'd won a year earlier; on a workable mark returned to handicap level and Jack Dace takes off a bonus 5lb; shortlisted. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Came good in the mud last autumn, winning an Ascot handicap in September and following up in this race; hasn't come close to that level this season, including back on soft ground in that same Ascot handicap four weeks ago, but still no surprise were he to revive in refitted blinkers. |

5th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
10st 0lb |
Two 7f soft-ground wins last term were kicked off in a similar handicap on the Saturday of this meeting one year ago; followed that up with a Redcar Listed success under Rossa Ryan one month later; hasn't matched that in two starts this term but this tends to be his time of year and he stays 1m; respected down to his last winning mark. |

1st May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
His strike-rate is an unimpressive 3-26 but he's seldom far away and last October's excellent second in a top handicap over C&D preceded an AW Listed win; came up short at Doha and Meydan early this year but showed enough to suggest he should be on the premises. |
6/1 |

18th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
This is his first run since April and he has a lofty mark, but he won a Group 3 at Haydock (1m, good) last September and has a history of running well off big weights in handicaps; likes it here; not ruled out. |

5th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 1m 1f 209y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Group 3 2yo winner on heavy and best form has an older horse has also come in the mud, notably seconds in the Celebration Mile at Goodwood and a 1m Listed race here (wore first-time cheekpieces that now return); having his first run on fast ground and over 1m2f when never dangerous in the Wolferton at Royal Ascot; there are reservations on a couple of counts. |

18th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Won the Horris Hill at Newbury on heavy as a 2yo and underlined his liking for testing turf when second in the Celebration Mile at Goodwood and a 1m Sandown Listed race (wore first-time cheekpieces) at the end of last summer; ended 3yo campaign on a low note at Newmarket and also ran poorly with a visor added on his Doncaster reappearance in March; given time since; no headgear now and also up in trip. |

23rd Mar 2024 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Won the Horris Hill at Newbury on heavy as a 2yo and underlined his liking for testing turf when second in the Celebration Mile at Goodwood (Charyn over 1l back in third) and a Sandown Listed race (wore first-time cheekpieces) at the end of last summer; ran poorly in 1m1f Newmarket Group 3 when last seen in October but a bold show is assured if back to anywhere near his best in a first-time visor. |

9st 11lb |
1-23 in Britain, the win coming from 2lb higher at Nottingham (1m, good to firm) in May; recent efforts suggest he will need to step up in order to make an impact; first-time visor joins the cheekpieces. |
14/1 |

28th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Hasn't kicked on from a winning debut for this yard (1m; 1lb higher) and finished last on his previous AW start; others safer. |

16th Sep 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Won at Nottingham (8.3f, good to firm) on stable debut in May but diminishing returns in three runs since and was only eighth of ten at Haydock last month; now back on last winning mark but he needs to rediscover his spark back up in trip. |

5th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 13lb |
C&D winner (good to soft) just over four years ago; on a losing run since going back-to-back at Nottingham and Newmarket (both heavy at around 1m) in the autumn of 2023 and recent efforts are not enough to tempt despite this falling mark. |
16/1 |

6th 8 (8) |
19th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Continues to drop down the weights but this 8yo struggled in the main last season and it was the same story on last month's reappearance; needs to turn things around. |
