19th Oct 2025 Yielding 1m 2f 0y |
9st 3lb |
Decent sort but hasn't added to 2yo maiden win; has been running over further of late, good efforts in Gowran Listed and Galway premier handicap and career-best in Group 3 CMG Group Stakes here last month over 1m4f when beaten 4l; not sure if this drop in trip will be in his favour. |

Decent sort but hasn't added to 2yo maiden win; placed on five of six starts this term, including C&D Listed, most recently in Galway premier handicap; fair bit to find to play a major role. |

3yo; has gone 0-5 since his maiden win and his lack of pace has been exposed of late; he still didn't run at all badly last week in a 1m4f Listed race at Gowran and perhaps a big-field handicap scenario will suit him well. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 188y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Ex-Irish; didn't need to run up to his best when a narrow winner of a Stratford maiden last month (2m, good to firm; 1-2 shot, first run after wind op); well beaten in decent 1m4f York handicap last week; obvious contender on first try at 2m4f. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Formerly with Aidan O'Brien and Denis Hogan; well held on the Flat in Ireland this April; had wind surgery after failing to land the odds (bled from nose) in a maiden hurdle in June on debut for Faye Bramley; no mistake at 1-2 in a similar event at Stratford in July, which is far removed from today's task, though, and a big career best is needed on this. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Close second in 1m7f French Group 2 (on very soft) last October remains his best form; he has a competitive handicap mark, though, as he showed when running on well from off the pace to be fourth of 17 to Opportunity at Royal Ascot (1m4f) last time; Ryan Moore stays on board; Irish St Leger entry with strong claims back up in trip. |
7/1 |

19th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
His 1m2f Group 3 run here (40-1) was the only blip from him last season; close second in 1m7f French Group 2 last October looks his best form but his handicap mark has fallen and plenty of ability remains; the biggest question may be whether this trip is now on the short side. |
13/2 |

4th 1 (3) |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Consistent last season, going close in 1m2f Group 3 Gallinule Stakes here and later in year twice runner-up in Longchamp Group contests over 1m7f; first two runs this term at 1m6f were creditable, drop back 1m4f didn't suit latest; drops to handicap company and back to ideal trip. |

Trainer, who has a good eye for a bargain and can produce 2yo winners, went to E16,000 at the yearling sales for this lad; half-brother to six winners inc Secret Existence (10.6f AW; RPR 93), Twenty Times (1m2f; 91), Morigny (6f-10.5f inc 2yo; 81) and Ombra Mia (French 1m4f); dam 1m2f turf/10.6f AW winner (71), out of 1m2f-12.5f Listed winner. |

Decent level of form in both outings in Curragh 2yo maidens in 2024 would give him a major chance here if returning at the same level following two years off the track (gelded); market should be a good guide to his readiness, but Billy Lee deserts. |

19th Oct 2026 Good 2m 3f 166y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
0-18 under all codes but was placed on all three hurdling starts for this stable in August/September and also ran well when third of four (just behind Golly Gosh) on recent chasing debut at Stratford (2m3f, good to firm; first-time hood); below form the only previous time he wore cheekpieces but still features prominently in calculations. |

5th Oct 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 98y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Ex-Irish maiden; placed on all three hurdling starts for current stable, losing out only by a short head at Sedgefield (2m1f, good) on second occasion; not bred for fences and unraced over this far but could be hard to beat in this modest race if his jumping is adequate; hooded for first time. |

0-16 but early days with this yard and he's due a 6lb rise after going down by a short head at Sedgefield ten days ago (2m1f, good); he was clear of the third that day; clear claims. |

Closely matched with some of today's rivals on recent efforts, and ran his usual honest race when third of 17 last week at Naas (2m); that trip appeared to stretch him, and before then over 1m4f he was a closing third behind Handani; Reese Holohan rides again. |

In new blinkers when staying on best at Galway (1m4f, yielding) and stamina appeared stretched by 1m6f when swamped late on at Killarney; tactically versatile and Reese Holohan's claim is well worth having. |

10st 2lb |
Completed a rapid hat-trick in handicap hurdles in May and got off the mark over fences at the third attempt at Uttoxeter (2m, good) recently; 10lb higher against much tougher opposition this afternoon but he made all in fine style last time and this 4yo could continue his rise up the ranks. |

Showed the benefit of wind surgery when winning three hurdle races on the bounce in May and very nearly defied a 4lb lower mark than this at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) in July on chase debut; latest race was voided well before the finish; strong claims. |
