30th Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Ran respectably on soft ground once, raced on faster otherwise; Ballydoyle colt whose record is 6-9 and who has form figures of 112 over 1m, the wins in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf (by a neck) and French 2,000 Guineas (by a head); ran well, albeit no match for Field Of Gold, in the St James's Palace Stakes most recently; solid contender who should be involved but has work to do to reverse placings with the Gosden colt. |

17th Jun 2025 Good 0m 7f 213y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Ballydoyle colt whose record is 6-8; he is 2-2 over 1m, having won the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf (by a neck) on firm ground last November and the French 2,000 Guineas (by a head) on good ground last month; ties in closely with Field Of Gold on one piece of 2yo form; could well have even more to offer at this distance and is one of the main contenders, contributing to a gripping clash of Guineas winners; trainer has landed this prize nine times. |

9st 8lb |
Beat subsequent Group 1 winners Hotazhell and Scorthy Champ in Group 2 Futurity at the Curragh; looked an awkward ride when failing to uphold form with Scorthy Champ in National Stakes; probably unsuited by soft ground when below form in Prix Jean-Luc Legardere; came good in style over 1m on quick ground at the Breeders' Cup. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Has been on his travels, winning a Group 3 at Baden-Baden (6f, soft) last August but finishing unplaced at Woodbine, Meydan and Doha in the meantime; returns from another five months off and hard to know how well handicapped he is; stable also runs Garfield Shadow. |

3rd Aug 2025 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 1 |
9st 1lb |
Solid start to his career comprised a maiden success and two close seconds at Group 2 level; not in anything like the same form since, comfortably held in warm 3yo handicap most recently; chance depends on whether first-time hood prompts a turnaround. |

10th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Twice a runner-up in Group 2s last year; ended his 2yo campaign with a couple of lesser efforts though and he made a low-key return at Chantilly (5.5f, good to soft; Group 3) in April; up against it on his handicap debut. |

14th Sep 2025 Yielding 0m 5f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Very experienced for his age; winner of six of his 16 starts and placed eight times; strong form in winning with something to spare from Mgheera in a C&D Group 2 in July; faded in the final quarter-mile of the Nunthorpe; could bounce back and helps to give the stable a strong hand, with Bucanero Fuerte also in the mix. |
6/1 |

11th 9 (9) |
22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 13lb |
Often leads; has had plenty of racing for his tender years but he's tough and reliable and his first 5f run of the year saw him achieve strong form in winning with something to spare from Mgheera in a Group 2 at the Curragh (good; acts well on firm) in July; still has potential over 5f. |
11/2 |
|
5 (3) |
19th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Front running 3yo is a two-time Group 3 winner at 5.5f-6f; narrowly denied in the Grade 1 Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf last November on his last start over 5f (firm); touched off in the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot last month (6f, gd-fm); right in the mix on official ratings and a bold bid looks likely. |

30th Jun 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Brother to last year's top-class sprinting juvenile Blackbeard; no match for a smart sort on Navan debut last month before landing odds in C&D conditions event under a positive ride when beating subsequent Queen Mary second Mighty Eriu, still green; looks the type to improve further and fitted with cheekpieces here; Ballydoyle pick and a big player if handling softer conditions. |

5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 113y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Heavy-ground winner of a Glorious Goodwood handicap (1m) last July and he had dipped below that winning mark when scoring at Nottingham (8.5f, good) last time; 2lb nudge shouldn't stop him being competitive. |

1st 1 (10) |
9th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Acts on good to firm and heavy ground; won off 1lb higher at Goodwood (1m) last July but has mixed record since and was beaten 11l in the Spring Mile on his reappearance in March; this is a big drop back in grade but he's now 1-11 in handicaps and others are more convincing. |
12/1 |
|
11th 4 (12) |
28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Not disgraced (fifth of 14) in sole Doncaster attempt and current mark is workable; however, may be more interesting when back at Goodwood with this reappearance under his belt, having gained both wins there. |
12/1 |
