5th 5 (8) |
3rd Oct 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Still smart but has drawn a blank since taking a Meydan Listed race in December 2023 and the likelihood is the wait for his next win will go on. |

2nd 4 (8) |
12th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Won his 2yo maiden over C&D when based in Ireland; last win was a Meydan Listed race in 2023, but he's kept good company during his losing stretch; remains capable of smart form and might have gone close in a valuable 7f handicap at Galway had he not been caught in a pocket; considered. |
7/1 |

3rd 2 (3) |
2nd Aug 2026 Yielding To Soft 0m 7f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Well-travelled and well-exposed 8yo is a long time winless; was running in stakes races in Dubai during the winter; held in handicap company in Britain last twice. |
20/1 |

9th 8 (20) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Landed the Victoria Cup over C&D in 2022 and hasn't had the smoothest of passages in two attempts in this contest (finished 11th that year and tenth in 2023); losing run is mounting up, however, and he doesn't look particularly solid on his form for current stable. |
33/1 |

8th 4 (7) |
14th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
8yo who is without a win since December 2023 but he showed spark in Dubai this winter and ran big races on his two previous visits to York; returns to a handy on a fair mark and could have an each-way shout. |
16/1 |
