9st 10lb |
Ended last season with two Pattern wins (1m1f/1m, good) at Leopardstown, proving suited by dropping back in trip after being tried over middle distances; upset in stalls and withdrawn on intended seasonal debut at Leopardstown; dropped away tamely in the Queen Anne; may have needed the run and will be hard to beat if recapturing his best form. |

9st 2lb |
Ballydoyle colt who was withdrawn last month on intended reappearance, having got upset in the stalls; ended last season with two Group wins (1m1f/1m, good) at Leopardstown, proving suited by dropping back in distance; looks a potential threat in this division this term but, being the only seasonal debutant in the field, the market signals may prove the best guide. |

C&D Group 2 winner at two; experienced a couple of reverses last season after a creditable fourth in the Poulains; floundered in testing conditions in the Prix du Jockey-Club and failed to stay 1m4f in the King Edward VII Stakes; redeemed himself with a handsome 1m1f at this venue and signed off with an emphatic C&D win from Mutasarref. |

Has won ten of his 30 starts, including four times at this venue at 7f-1m; most recent success came at Cork in October 2024 (1m, yielding) but ran some fine races last season, including when third in this; well behind a couple of these on seasonal return here last month but better expected now with that run under his belt; place chance. |

Ten victories include four here, most notably twice at Group 3 level in 2024; not quite at the same level this year but solid form, most recently seasonal-best when getting up late for second in Group 2 Solonaway Stakes at the Curragh. |

10th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Confirmed his liking for this venue when winning a Listed race here last season (Mutasarref a neck behind), his second C&D win; improving for each outing this season and should run his race but a rating of 99 leaves him with a fair amount to find with a few of these rivals. |

3rd 3 (1) |
22nd Apr 2026 Soft To Heavy 0m 7f 0y |

Won this in 2023; consistent stakes performer with seven wins; won Heritage Stakes last season, beating Mutasarref by a neck; best subsequent effort came when fourth in Minstrel Stakes in July; two starts this season, improved from return to be beaten 3.25l behind The Lion In Winter at Leopardstown seven days ago; down in trip; mightn't want the ground too testing but shouldn't be far away and trainer has good course record. |

Seven career wins include this race last season, when he got up in the last strides to deny the odds-on favourite Mutasarref; produced his best subsequent effort when fourth in the Minstrel Stakes at the Curragh last July; dropped away tamely in the 7f Gladness Stakes at the Curragh on seasonal debut. |

Top rated in here at 107; running well in higher grades on his last few starts; his last try in Listed company resulted in victory at the Curragh (1m, soft); was only beaten 3.5l in a Group 2 on latest and he has to hold big claims here if handling the surface on AW debut. |

Stepped up from his Dubai efforts earlier in the year when making all in C&D Group 3 Alleged Stakes (first-time cheekpieces) in April; faded into fifth behind Los Angeles in the Mooresbridge Stakes; good effort when second in the Listed Wolferton Stakes at Ascot; not one of his better efforts in the four-race Meld Stakes at Leopardstown last month. |

Stepped up from his Dubai efforts earlier in year when making all in 1m2f Group 3 Alleged Stakes at the Curragh (first-time cheekpieces) in April and bettered that under a penalty when second in Listed Wolferton Stakes at Ascot, racing wide and hanging right on quick ground in front when beaten 3/4l; still improving and big player. |

Stepped up from his Dubai efforts earlier in year when making all in 1m2f Group 3 at the Curragh (good; first-time cheekpieces) in April; couldn't repeat the form in a Group 2 there six weeks ago and a 5lb penalty for the Group 3 success leaves him vulnerable here. |

9st 3lb |
Failed to build on a decent fourth at Lingfield (1m2f) in February when behind Blue Rc at Newcastle (1m) on Good Friday but the fact he made all in this race off 8lb lower last year means a revival can't be discounted, particularly as he's well drawn to attack again; tongue-tied first time. |
13/2 |

8th 9 (5) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Quiet in Dubai in January but he returned to Britain with a good fourth at Lingfield (1m2f) five weeks ago; now 6lb lower than when winning the Thirsk Hunt Cup last May and he has the ability to feature. |

27th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |

Often front runs; below par in three outings at Meydan last month (including dirt) but well treated if a return to Britain sparks a revival having landed last year's Thirsk Hunt Cup off 6lb higher; Tapeta winner at the start of his career. |

18th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Keen-going sort likes a sound surface; beat Tarawa on the round mile at the Curragh just over a year ago and, after being gelded over the winter, made winning reappearance in five-runner Group 3 over that trip here in May; penalty means he's 3lb worse off with runner-up Real Appeal; down the field over 1m2f at Royal Ascot where he probably didn't stay; not an obvious candidate for headgear but cheekpieces are fitted. |
6/1 |

14th 2 (10) |
18th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 1 |
9st 10lb |
Reappeared after a gelding operation to win a 1m Group 3 at Leopardstown (good) last month but it wasn't a strong race of its type and he looks vulnerable under a 5lb penalty here; stamina is also not assured (weakened on his previous attempt at about 1m2f). |

Winner of seven of his 25 races; gained most recent of five stakes wins on his favoured soft ground at Tipperary last October; has had a break since respectable seasonal return in the Gladness Stakes in March; stakes performer dropping back into handicap so has to be respected but wants softer ground. |
