Dual Listed winner who faced a stiff task in deep waters at Royal Ascot last time; respectable third to Rumstar in this race last year and was only one place behind that rival in the 2026 Palace House; in the mix. |

Ended 2025 with 5f Listed wins at Beverley (good to firm) and over C&D (soft) either side of a Group 2 second to First Instinct at Newbury; has a lot to find on those efforts and also on this year's runs for a new yard. |

9st 2lb |
Two Listed wins at about 5f - at York (good to firm) as 2yo and Chantilly (heavy) on comeback - but she needs to recapture form now back at 6f and, even if she does, others have stronger form at the trip. |

20th Sep 2024 Good 0m 5f 110y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Two Listed wins, over 5f as 2yo (good to firm) and on reappearance at Chantilly (extended 5f, heavy); best effort since the latter when just losing out in 5f handicap at Glorious Goodwood but she ran flat behind Star Of Lady M at York next time which tempers enthusiasm. |

29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Has done himself proud since Doncaster win in June, finishing close up over 5f at the big meeting here and again in the Stewards' Cup (6f) four days later; another smart effort when third of 21 at York next time but well held on good to soft there since and deteriorating ground would be a worry. |
5/1 |

16th 12 (14) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Back in top form for David O'Meara this summer, running well twice at Glorious Goodwood and again when third of 21 here (5.4f, good) on Wednesday; tanked through Wednesday's race but didn't see it out quite so well as the front two; the worry today is that further rain has fallen and he is ideally suited by good to firm. |

He has performed with credit in all three York runs; two fine runs at Glorious Goodwood, notably in the Stewards' Cup in which he would have gone very close to winning granted a clear run at a crucial stage; races off the same mark and has a big run in him. |

Three wins in Britain at 5f (twice on AW); placed at Lingfield over the winter before being bought for 14,000gns in February; dropped out quickly after forcing pace on yard debut in Naas handicap last month on soft; probably best watched for now. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
8st 12lb |
All four wins at 5f on good ground or softer, bolting up in handicap at Goodwood in May; well below par in two subsequent runs but she's had over two months off since and could be revived; not without hope if so. |
20/1 |
|
2 (8) |
29th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Her three handicap wins have all come over C&D on good ground or slower; it was only a 0-88 that she won here on her reappearance in May but she fairly bolted up, easing her way into contention from well off the pace and skipping clear inside the final furlong; reverted to front-running in an Ayr Listed event last month but overdid things and dropped away late on; 11lb higher than for May's win but still a strong contender if the ground doesn't dry out too much. |
12/1 |

21st Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |

Loves Goodwood and has gained her last three wins there, pulling clear of 12 opponents in handicap on latest; the one to beat if she can repeat that form; best efforts so far on good ground or softer. |

Arrives in good heart, following a third to Badri at Windsor with a battling success on the same course (6f, good to firm) 12 days ago; up 5lb for the win but that form was boosted when runner-up Trefor went one better here on Wednesday; needs to be considered. |

First win since his 2yo debut when scoring off a reduced mark at Chepstow (6f, good to firm) 26 days ago; back up 5lb but his confidence should be boosted after that success and he has been generally consistent in handicaps; shortlisted. |

On a losing run but he posted a very good second after wind surgery at Chester (6f) in June; went without his usual cheekpieces when last of 21 in 6f York handicap last month; no surprise to see him bounce back. |

Better than ever on turf this year, notably over C&D when winning Listed (beating Likedbymike) in June and good third under top-weight in handicap following month; ground on the quick side when unable to mount a challenge in Shergar Cup Dash at Ascot earlier this month but back to favoured C&D and on easier ground seems sure to make a bold bid. |

Ended 2025 with a win in a handicap in Bahrain (5f, good); he has raised his game on turf this summer, winning a Listed race at Cork (5f, good; cheekpieces first time) in June; the cheekpieces were absent when he was a fine third in a Cork handicap two weeks ago, doing best of the far-side group, and another big run seems likely. |

His seven wins include this race in 2024; added a valuable handicap in Bahrain over the winter; bounced back to form after a break when winning a C&D Listed race last month but found Group 2 company too tough at the Curragh last weekend; this is easier despite his hefty weight. |

This is his first outing since last December but he's gone well fresh in the past and ran some good races in the second half of last year; his C&D form figures read 12772 and he can be in the shake-up if fully tuned up. |
