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. |

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. |

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. |

20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Second of three in Group 1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud last October (1m2f, heavy) and respectable seventh of 18 in the Derby 13 days ago (1m4f, good); back down in grade today but his eight starts have yielded just one win, in a maiden at Yarmouth, and he's probably vulnerable once more. |
14/1 |

4 (8) |
7th Jun 2025 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Dam won five Group races at up to 1m4f and was touched off in the Irish Oaks; six 2yo runs yielded one win at 1m1f before seconds in Group races over 1m2f at Newmarket (good to soft) and Saint-Cloud (heavy); this new trip should suit but he dropped right out at Newmarket (1m1f) in April. |

19th Oct 2025 Yielding 1m 2f 0y |
9st 3lb |
Hasn't added to Currah 2yo maiden win but some good efforts in smart company, notably Queens Vase fourth and second behind Al Riffa in Group 2 Curragh Cup (1m6f, good); stamina test of 2m1f Irish Cesarewitch seemed beyond him last time and now takes a marked drop in trip. |
9/1 |

28th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 170y |
9st 9lb |
Third of three for yard and Lordan rides; not beaten far behind Carmers in the Queens Vase at Royal Ascot in June; good second behind Al Riffa in the Curragh Cup (1m6f, good) on penultimate; weakened over 2m latest; stamina a query on handicap debut. |
14/1 |

5th 6 (2) |
22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 56y Class 1 |
8st 8lb |
Sole win (eight races) remains a 2yo maiden; Group assignments all five starts since, his most competitive displays when a close, front-running fourth in Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot and second of five in another 1m6f Group 2 at the Curragh last time; may well stay 2m but had no answer to the Curragh winner and needs big improvement from today's new trip and/or first-time headgear. |

10st 0lb |
Responded well to first-time cheekpieces in useful handicap (1m4f, soft) on Derby day when last seen, taking Epsom record to 2-2; similar type to High Degree and looks a major player in the retained headgear. |

19th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Reserve; has usually run with credit here, including on good to firm in May, and scored (from Night Breeze) with first-time cheekpieces under Warren Fentiman at Epsom 13 days ago; however, his only two wins from 15 races have both been at Epsom in the mud and he's also now gone back up 6lb. |

12th Oct 2024 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 1 |

Kingman colt who cost 500,000gns as a yearling; promising third in a maiden at Sandown (1m, good) and 8-11 winner of Kempton novice (1m, AW) three weeks later; has Group 1 Futurity entry this month; brother to smart Age Of Kings and looks a good prospect himself. |

12th Oct 2024 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
This colt's dam is a sister to Illinois and half-sister to Danedream; made a muted debut at Tipperary (1m1f, good) but transformed to win nine-runner maiden at Gowran Park (1m, good) later in September, making most and ending well on top; still green that day and there's plenty to like, even if Ryan Moore is on Shackleton. |

12th Aug 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
10st 1lb |
Chepstow winner in May over 1m2f and made a winning AW debut here over 1m3f in June (had the hood removed); raised 6lb for that success but he should have no problem with the extra furlong and has good claims. |
9/2 |
|
1st 8 (4) |
29th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Has endured a couple of lengthy absences in his seven-race career but showed the ability remains when successful in a first-time hood (now removed) at Chepstow (1m2f, good to soft) last month; half-brother to a couple of AW winners and shortlisted; stable also runs Mathematician. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 5 (1) |
8th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Has mixed record in his six starts but he added to his debut win for the Crisfords when landing a Chepstow handicap (1m2f, good to soft; hood applied) last month; up 4lb but he beat a clear second last time and he still has potential; shortlisted. |
