23rd May 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 4f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Ex Ballydoyle-trained; won Lingfield Derby Trial last year but well held in both Irish Derby and Irish St Leger; bought for 78,000gns and soundly beaten on yard debut in Grade 2 Leopardstown hurdle at Christmas; tried in a tongue-tie here and plenty on his plate in what looks a hot Listed race. |

9st 0lb |
3yo represents stable that has won this nine times, including last year; built on promise of reappearance effort behind Delacroix when winning the Derby Trial at Lingfield (11.5f, gd-fm); off since below par effort in the Irish Derby; gets weight from his older rivals but needs to prove stamina for this trip (mixed messages in pedigree); obvious chance if he stays. |

29th Jun 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Kept on for fourth behind Delacroix (2 1/2l off runner-up Lambourn) in the 1m2f Group 3 Ballysax at Leopardstown on reappearance; suited by the step up in trip when winning the Lingfield Derby Trial (Listed) by a short head from stablemate Stay True; missed engagement in the King Edward VII Stakes; looks second-best of a Ballydoyle quintet. |

9st 7lb |
Has finished fourth in two maidens so far, over 7f on soft at Tipperary and over 1m on good at Killarney, beaten around 4L in both; has 2.75L to find with Puppet Master from that second run; place claims at best. |

29th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
9st 10lb |
Group 1-winning 2yo made the frame last year in Epsom/Curragh Derbies and career-best when winning the Group 2 Prix Chaudenay (1m7f, very soft) at Longchamp in October; disappointing when last seen in Group 2 Riyadh contest in January, fading tamely on quick ground after forcing much of pace; demands plenty of respect on overall form. |

29th Jun 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Coped with heavy ground to beat Green Storm in three-runner Group 1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud (1m2f) last October; needed the race and unsuited by a muddling gallop and quick ground when around 7l third behind Delacroix in the Ballysax in May; did best of those who came from off the pace when finishing strongly for third in the Derby; holds a fighting chance in the rematch. |

7th Jun 2025 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Out of half-sister to top-class miler Rock Of Gibraltar; upgraded his 2yo form when dealing with heavy ground to beat Green Storm in a three-runner race for Group 1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud (1m2f) in October; the race looked to be needed when he was beaten nearly 7l by Delacroix in a Group 3 at Leopardstown (1m2f, good) last month but that's quite a gap to bridge. |

Seasonal-best at Cork last month when chasing home a progressive sort (Vlhova third, Great Mover fourth) after making much of running; should go well off just 1lb higher. |

Uneven form; showed up well at Leopardstown last week, finishing only just behind fifth-placed Tilani in the race won by Refreshment; has potential for improvement. |

10st 2lb |
Got off the mark in a 1m4f Fairyhouse maiden in June having been third in a quality Navan Listed race the time before; heavy ground a possible excuse when disappointing off top weight at Listowel in September; gelded since and he went close on his seasonal return last year. |

10st 2lb |
Got off the mark in a 1m4f Fairyhouse maiden in June having been third to the classy Carmers in a Navan Listed race over 1m5f the time before; the form of that race is strong and he can go well on return if handling this ground even under a big weight. |

Showed ability last season and was only beaten a head in a Leopardstown maiden on return before finishing third of seven in Listed company; not sure to appreciate slower conditions but will be a major player if he does. |
