Promising reappearance after wind surgery when fourth at Newcastle (6f) but has taken two backward steps since; has his first run beyond sprint distances here and needs to bounce back after seven weeks off. |

Promising reappearance after wind surgery when fourth of 14 over C&D in January but failed to build on that when only sixth of seven at Lingfield (6f) four weeks ago; bounce back needed. |

Excelled as a 3yo but found the handicapper in command last year; promising reappearance at Newcastle six weeks ago (first run after wind surgery) and he is on a dangerous mark; widest stall to deal with but foolish to discount. |

Promising 2yo, including a Listed third on heavy ground, but he's made little impact in three good handicaps this year; dropping down the weights but others bring stronger credentials. |

His 2yo win came on soft ground over 6f; showed he could handle faster conditions when a close fifth at Windsor 18 days ago, but hard pressed to say he's well-enough treated to win a race like this. |

Had some season to have already bagged an International (C&D, good) and the Stewards' Cup (6f, good to soft); he might not be done yet as he was beaten under a length at the Ebor meeting and then never nearer than at the finish after starting slowly in the Ayr Gold Cup; may have little margin for error off current mark but can see him running well. |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
One Newmarket blip aside it has been a fine season for him, winning big pots in successive weekends in July/August, the International at Ascot (7f, good) and an emphatic one in the Stewards' Cup (6f, good to soft); another solid effort when close up in fourth behind Northern Ticker at the Ebor meeting four weeks ago, making up a lot of ground in the penultimate furlong; this stiffer test should suit and in the thick of it if the ground proves suitable (disappointed in one run on soft but it was a farcical contest). |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Upwardly mobile 4yo who won prestigious events at Ascot (7f International; good) in July and Goodwood (6f Stewards' Cup; good to soft) in August; has gone up a total of 13lb on the basis of those efforts but he may have more in the tank and he wasn't beaten far in this race (good to firm) in 2024. |

Ready winner of a C&D handicap last summer off a 12lb lower mark; better than ever when a close fourth in a Wolverhampton Listed race in March and he faced a stiff task at Haydock three weeks ago; should give his running but could find one or two stronger back in handicap company. |

Steadily progressive 5yo, including two 7f handicap wins last year; took form to a higher level when fourth of 15 in a Listed race at Deauville (7.5f) in December, never far away in a race where the pace held up; should have another big run in him. |

Both wins came as a juvenile for Charlie Hills at 5f/7f on different ground types; has plunged in the ratings and took third (0.5l behind Exceeding) at Leopardstown (7f, yielding to soft) in April; unplaced favourite at Gowran next time, but took the runner-up spot at Roscommon (7.5f, good to yielding); in the mix. |

26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 110y Class 5 |

3rd Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 7y Class 2 |

No improvement for a sixth furlong and/or slower ground at Newmarket last month; had been threatening something bigger before that though and he's interesting with a stiff 5f likely to suit. |

11th Jul 2024 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

Raced exclusively at 5f, on firm ground in the US and on good or faster since joining Richard Fahey; has strongly suggested that a sixth furlong would be beneficial, keeping on stoutly at Royal Ascot three weeks ago, and this mark probably not beyond him; slower ground is an unknown factor but his smart half-brother Kerdos acts on it and his dam recorded her only win on soft; interesting. |
