19th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Won twice at two and his defeats came in races won by top-notchers; has also kept good company this season, running well on the AW before failing to fire around Chester in the 1m2f Listed Dee Stakes; while that wasn't the ideal preparation for a Britannia, he'd be no forlorn hope if back on song. |

31st May 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 37y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Belatedly confirmed his debut promise when running away with maiden at Windsor (1m, good to firm) on reappearance, clocking a good time in the process; he was well backed that day and looks open to further improvement now tackling a handicap; might be the answer. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 1m 1f 197y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Unlucky second in last year's Britannia at Royal Ascot then caught the eye on reappearance; hasn't exactly lived up to expectations in two starts since but remains of interest assuming this new scenario (steps up from 1m) prompts a positive effect; too soon to give up on him. |
7/1 |
|
7th 7 (9) |
1st May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Went close in the Britannia at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) last June on his fourth start; not seen again until a good fourth at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW) this March, despite a slow start and having to come very wide in the straight; disappointing favourite in the Lincoln at Doncaster three weeks later, perhaps with the good to soft ground against him but overall improvement is required moving from handicaps into this Group 3. |
8/1 |
|
14th 2 (13) |
28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Went close in the Britannia Handicap at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) last June on his fourth start; then absent until the Trial at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW) three weeks ago, when he was fourth despite a slow start and having to come very wide in the straight; could play a leading role on the back of that eyecatching run, provided conditions suit (unraced on slow turf). |

9st 10lb |
Two front-running wins on Wolverhampton AW (about 1m and 1m1f) early in 2026; no impact behind Candonomore back on turf at Bath last time, when regular blinkers were left off, as today; likely other days. |
8/1 |

27th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

AW form since wearing blinkers features his only two wins; 0-4 on turf and has a bit to prove with the headgear removed back in this sphere. |

3rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |

Front-runner who twice made all at Wolverhampton (8.6f/9.5f) in January, but recent evidence suggests the handicapper may have him for the time being. |

31st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Competitive over 5f at Musselburgh this spring and wasn't at his best at Hamilton two weeks ago (6f); capable of bouncing back. |

13th 3 (14) |
17th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 6y Class 4 |

Three solid efforts over 5f at Musselburgh this spring; no worries about the return to 6f in another big field and he may yet be capable of better; high on the shortlist. |

2nd 6 (7) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who built on his reappearance second over C&D (soft) to win a 17-runner handicap over C&D (good to soft) a fortnight ago; also effective on good/good to firm; up 7lb for last time but did it nicely and he could be just the type of Jim Goldie sprinter to keep on improving. |

21st Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 42y Class 4 |

Didn't have to improve to make a winning stable debut at Leicester in July (5f, good); caught wide when down the field at Chester last time but not sure he's handicapped to win. |

30th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Won Leicester maiden (5f, good) last month on stable debut; not at the top of his game at Chepstow next time (5f, good to soft; sole run on slow ground) but fourth of 13 at Windsor (5f, good to firm) since in first-time tongue-tie (retained); might not be far away if absence of hood isn't an issue. |

Didn't need to improve to make a winning stable debut for Michael Keady in a Leicester maiden last month (5f, good); ran okay in a Racing League handicap at Chepstow last week but he will need more for the faster ground and/or new tongue-tie if he's to win this from a wide stall. |

Similar type to Eupator having made his debut in a 1m event on heavy going; only midfield (comfortably held) in that Bath race but may do better on this surface, being out of an AW winner. |

80,000euros yearling; by Masar and the first foal of a French 8.5f AW winner whose siblings include high-level winners Sea La Rosa (1m6f Group 1) and Deauville Legend (1m4f Group 2); the stable first string on jockey arrangements; respected debutant. |

12th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 197y Class 1 |
8st 10lb |
Unraced on softer than good; emphatic wins in his first three handicaps, here on second occasion; the winning sequence ended on latest outing but he was a close second that day to the subsequent Melrose winner; has a fair bit to find on form but this 3yo should be open to further progress and he's a dark horse venturing beyond 14.5f for the first time. |
8/1 |

2nd 2 (1) |
24th Jul 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Has been a textbook Prescott improver switched to handicaps this term, posting three emphatic wins, latest over C&D (good to firm); could well defy another big rise in the weights and complete the four-timer. |
7/4 |
|
1st 4 (3) |
4th Jul 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Four 2yo runs at up to 8.5f barely scratched the surface of his potential and he ran out the comfortable winner of two handicaps last month, 1m4f at Ripon and an extended 1m6f at Doncaster last week; 10lb higher this time but still 2lb well in and he has more to offer as a stayer. |

13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Five wins last year (AW/soft) and he improved again to win in good style on his reappearance at Kempton (6f, AW) in March; he's 5-9 on AW as opposed to 1-7 on turf but there can be optimism that he is just as good on grass (has shown promise on various ground) and he's firmly in calculations. |
6/1 |
|
1st 5 (6) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Hold-up sprinter who won five times in 2025; fifth in a big-field event at the Curragh last September when he had to wait for an age for a gap to appear; appeals as the type to progress again this year and he's high on the list, for all he will need luck in running. |

30th Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Sister to Listed-placed 1m-1m2f winner Sinjaari (RPR 115); finished in rear at big prices in three qualifying runs but she wasn't beaten far at Kempton (1m) on her second start and that was promising; looks a possible improver now switched to a handicap and she needs watching in market. |
13/2 |

9th 10 (7) |
30th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 2 |

Huge prices for two Kempton runs last backend, showing more second time in a maiden that's produced its share of winners; this looks tough enough back from eight months off and handicaps are probably next in line. |
