25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
2-3 as 2yo, wins coming in a soft-ground novice at Leicester and with a strong-staying performance in Group 3 at Newmarket (1m2f, good to soft); made a belated reappearance in Listed race at Goodwood (1m2f, good to soft; 11-2) one month ago and although Ancient Wisdom finished about 3l ahead, the way this 3yo kept on from off the pace gave encouragement; there's stamina and class on the dam's side. |
6/1 |

7th 10 (9) |
24th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 1f 197y Class 1 |
8st 13lb |
Absent since winning the Zetland Stakes at Newmarket (1m2f, good to soft; Group 3) last October, taking form figures to 211; promising contender who could have plenty of further improvement in him, assuming all is well; interesting on belated reappearance. |
8/1 |

1st 5 (7) |
12th Oct 2024 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Came from off the pace to finish a clear second in maiden at Newmarket (7f, good) in July; on the strength of that he was 4-9 for 11-runner novice at Leicester (7f, soft) two months later, having to work hard but looking better the further he went and scoring in clearcut style; clear potential in those performances, including for this longer trip. |

12th Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Got off the mark at the sixth attempt in Leicester maiden (1m, good to firm) last month and followed up on handicap debut here (1m, good) a fortnight ago; there are mixed messages from his pedigree regarding the step up in trip and he could do with settling better than last time, but this progressive 3yo was strong at the finish and could take a 5lb penalty in his stride for a top trainer who has won this three times since 2011. |
9/4 |
|
1st 9 (2) |
28th Jun 2025 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Promising 2yo for the now-retired Sir Michael Stoute last season; didn't enjoy a clear run when second in Nottingham novice (1m, good) on his stable and seasonal debut, and easily won Leicester maiden (1m, good to firm) next time; with a top Newmarket trainer and has potential off his opening mark. |
5/6 |

21st Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Runner-up four times in a row (met trouble in running on return) before his stylish win in a Leicester maiden (1m, good to firm) 18 days ago, albeit at 2-5; needs better on this handicap debut but there's major hope for 1m2f. |

2nd 10 (12) |
5th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Disappointing on second start but two efforts either side have been promising, making running when third to a useful prospect at Leicester (7f, soft) on latest; sets the standard on form and unlikely to be far away. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 10 (12) |
10th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Couldn't hold a candle to the winner at Newmarket (7f, good; 11-1) one month ago but beat the other ten; produced a lesser show at York (7f, good to firm) two weeks later but that was in the valuable Convivial Maiden and this is a lot less competitive; has Group 2 Royal Lodge entry. |

Juvenile hurdler who had wind surgery prior to justifying favouritism at Market Rasen (2m, good to soft) two months ago; considering his Flat mark, he looks well treated in this first crack at a handicap hurdle; highly respected. |

13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Promising 3yo last season and things clicked in a major way with a dominant win in a big-field C&D handicap (good) last October when last seen; he's entered in the Group 1 Jubilee Stakes at Royal Ascot and this lightly raced sort is in excellent hands to continue to progress; strong contender. |
9/2 |

18 (6) |
11th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Patiently ridden 3yo who won in good style at Ayr (6f, good to soft) in July and was anything but disgraced after a slow start when sixth of 25 in the Silver Cup there three weeks ago; gives the impression there's still more in the tank and he'll be dangerous if getting the breaks. |
6/1 |
|
6th 13 (19) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Has benefited from the drop to 6f, dismissing his rivals in fine style over C&D (good to soft) in July and likely finding the ground on the quick side in subsequent runs at Newmarket and Ascot (where sprint times suggested the going was quicker than the official good to soft); comes right into it now the conditions have eased. |

4th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 42y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Won maiden at Nottingham (1m, good) in June on reappearance but well beaten on handicap debut at Doncaster (1m2f, good; 10-1) six weeks ago; this currently looks a tough mark but this is only his fifth race. |

24th Jul 2025 Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Well related and showed the right attitude on his comeback early last month but that was an ordinary maiden (runner-up since well held behind Song Brocade); yard among the winners but he needs more now handicapping and upped in trip. |

18th Oct 2024 Heavy 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Took well to the application of tongue-tie/cheekpieces, drop in distance and switch to handicap level at Leicester (6f, heavy) last week; has to overcome a penalty (1lb lower in future) but could well build on that success; shortlisted. |
5/2 |

1st 2 (4) |
8th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
All runs over 7f; made the frame on AW debut but well beaten since then, latterly here on soft ground; dropped in trip for nursery debut and with headgear added, so comes with risks. |
20/1 |

7th 5 (8) |
10th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

21st Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Needs to put a poor performance at Chelmsford (1m5f, AW) last time behind him, but his record here this year (1m2f/11.5f) reads 131, both wins coming on good to firm ground; respected back at this venue, but easing ground could be a negative. |

18th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 5f 66y Class 5 |

Got back on the up when landing 11.5f handicap at Yarmouth last month and just as good when second on AW at Southwell (1m4f) 16 days ago; up in trip; another to consider. |

2nd 3 (4) |
2nd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 5 |

Got back on the up when landing 11.5f handicap at Yarmouth 18 days ago; up 3lb but he remains unexposed at around this trip; player. |

29th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Dual AW scorer who picked up the second of those wins at Kempton (1m) in March; two solid AW runs followed and he should be fine back on turf, having placed in a course classified (1m, good to firm) in July; player. |
5/2 |

4th 5 (4) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Made the breakthrough at Southwell (7f classified) in February and he got back on the scoresheet in a C&D handicap in March; never dangerous when fourth at Southwell last time but this step back up in trip looks a positive and he's not ruled out. |
8/1 |

4th 1 (2) |
11th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Back on song when landing 1m Kempton handicap 17 days ago; up 3lb but this C&D winner must enter calculations from a low draw. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Both wins have been over 1m2f on good to soft, with the most recent coming at Doncaster in September after the first past the post was disqualified for a banned substance; well beaten at Newbury on his return but this is a drop in grade. |

2-13, his latest success coming off this mark at Doncaster (1m2f, good to soft) last September after the first past the post was disqualified for a banned substance; off seven months but has gone well fresh before; each-way possibilities. |
