19th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
11-8 when winning on debut at Newbury (5f, good to soft) in April and reportedly unsuited by the soft (heavy in places) ground when disappointing favourite in the Listed National Stakes at Sandown; the Newbury form has worked out extremely well and he retains significant potential; one to consider. |

23rd May 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 10y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Kodiac colt who justified favouritism with a neck win at Newbury (good to soft) despite hanging right; the form has substance and he's a leading contender upped in grade; Hannon yard has a good record in this race. |

9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Record is only 1-10, the success in 2yo maiden; has bits of useful form, including at Group level, but his handicap record is rather unconvincing; chance of doubling his tally partly depends on the effects of two physical tweaks (had gelding/wind operations since last run). |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Suited by softer than good; best effort in Class 2 handicaps over 7f this season when third at Chester in June; ran well in the Mill Reef and Horris Hill at Newbury last autumn; interesting back here and dropped in grade. |

1st May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
The 2024 Coventry at Royal Ascot as 2yo remains his only win; runner-up to Jonquil on 2025 reappearance and ran creditably at 1m/1m2f on most subsequent starts, before a fruitless go at 1m4f at the Breeders' Cup in USA; each-way chance if he's tuned up but yard is not yet off the mark this term. |
11/2 |

2nd 8 (3) |
19th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 1 |
8st 13lb |
Won the Coventry at Royal Ascot last June; contested Group 1s on four of five starts since, on varied ground and this season taking fourth behind impressive Field Of Gold in both the Irish 2,000 Guineas at the Curragh and St James's Palace Stakes back at Royal Ascot; they were at 1m and there's no certainty that 1m2f will suit but he's not dismissed with his sights lowered. |
3/1 |
|
5 (6) |
17th Jun 2025 Good 0m 7f 213y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Recorded an 80-1 success in the Coventry here last year; finished in front of Field Of Gold on the Arc card but failed to confirm the placings in the Irish 2,000 Guineas most recently, coming home just over 5l behind that improving opponent; remains a very useful and consistent sort (form figures read 3212224) but needs a personal best to grab further Royal Ascot glory. |

16th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 3 |
9st 11lb |
Out of the frame on AW in sole outing this term; solid 2yo campaign on turf featured a soft-ground win in conditions race and two placed efforts at Listed level; return to this sphere is the angle with her. |

13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
His best form is at 5f and he hasn't been at the top of his game since a Listed win at this meeting last May; however, he kept on well for third at Goodwood (5f, good) recently, suggesting the return to 6f is worth exploring, and his two career wins have both come here; a visor goes on. |

3rd 7 (3) |
1st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Bagged 5f York listed event last May; off seven months/gelded before posting an encouraging eighth of 14 in 5f Musselburgh handicap 27 days ago, nearest finish having lost ground when hampered soon after start; not without interest off a reduced mark. |
6/1 |
|
8th 3 (8) |
4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 1y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
More miss than hit in 2025, winning 5f Listed race at York (good to firm) in May but failing to make the frame otherwise; now returns from a gelding operation on a handy mark and with his stable in form; big chance if he's on a going day. |

Consistent rather than progressive; solid effort after a break when fifth in a 7f handicap at Kempton two weeks ago; return to sprinting can help. |

Ran well when second in Lingfield novice (6f, turf) last July on his fourth start; absent since and he's tackling a new trip for his handicap debut, but the form of the stable is a plus and he's not discounted. |

Prominent racer was second over this trip at two; second over 6f three times this year, once here and in big-field Curragh handicaps last twice. |

2nd 6 (19) |
4th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y |
9st 13lb |
Remains a maiden after 14 races; positives can be taken from last month's C&D second, which gives him an edge over several members of this field; that was on soft and better ground should suit on the evidence of his Dundalk form; however, he is not well treated relative to I'm Spartacus based on a clash in March. |

29th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
6f nursery winner at Brighton last September; shaped quite well on her seasonal return at Lingfield in April (5f, AW) but failed to build on it in two further runs in the summer; back from 146 days on the sidelines and this drop in class will be in her favour; betting useful. |
