30th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Lightly raced for his age and has a 7-13 strike-rate; conceded 15lb to English Oak when making all to beat him by 2l in a handicap on the Rowley Mile at Newmarket (7f, good) in May, and showed he didn't have to lead when landing a Group 3 on the July Course there (7f, good to firm) last month; still seems to be improving at the age of six and is not opposed lightly. |

29th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Lightly raced 6yo who took his record to six wins from 12 starts when displaying improved form to make all in a handicap on the Rowley course here (7f, good) eight weeks ago; while he enjoyed the run of that race he did record an RPR which would have been good enough to win three of the last six runnings of this. |

28th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Group 3 runner-up in June 2024; nothing like the same force subsequently but some encouragement can be taken from his stable/seasonal debut in the Victoria Cup at Ascot, where he was soundly beaten overall but was first of seven in the group that raced initially on the far side; he's not ruled out. |

9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Very promising early in career for his first stable but broadly hasn't lived up to expectations and his form went markedly awry last term for a second yard; big turnaround is required on debut for his third trainer; dismissed unless the betting speaks positively. |

10th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Runner-up in Group 3 at Newmarket last June and very well treated on that form; watch the betting, but he was tailed off last September on his final run for Sir Michael Stoute and has struggled for his new stable this season. |

16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
His only turf wins came in a Royal Ascot handicap and Newbury Group 3, but they were in 2023 and he needs the cards to drop right for his late bids; scored on AW in January but subsequent form, including when 40-1 in the Victoria Cup last Saturday, isn't good enough. |

20th 1 (9) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Very useful but rather needs the cards to drop right and gained his only turf wins, namely in Royal Ascot handicap and Newbury Group 3, in 2023; peak AW form this year when scoring in January; finished seventh (off 4lb higher) in this contest 12 months ago. |

14th Sep 2024 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
8yo who ran creditably in the frame in 7f Group 3s at Haydock and Newmarket in June but was below par when fifth (2l behind Kinross) in the Lennox at Goodwood last time; fully exposed and would be a surprise winner. |
25/1 |

5th 6 (3) |
30th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Front-runner who was a short head behind Kinross when third in this race two years ago; his enthusiasm appears to remain intact at the age of eight, but his losing run is up to 12 and he finished just over 2l behind Noble Dynasty when fourth of five in a Group 3 on the Newmarket July Course last month; unlikely to gain an uncontested lead here and has a bit to find in any case. |

7th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Useful on turf but better on AW, winning four of his six starts including twice at Listed level (won the corresponding race when it was run at Lingfield in 2024); off the track for a year but still more appealing than many. |
