68,000euros yearling and closely related to the top-class 1m-1m4f performer Taghrooda; however, he was a weak 25-1 chance at Kempton and never figured. |

4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
10st 4lb |
He has a lofty mark to defy but he won two in a row in Bahrain in January (7f/1m, good/good to firm; including Local Grade 1) and after a break he caught the eye in the Royal Hunt Cup at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) last month, when he made late headway after being badly hampered; interesting. |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Useful performer but has done much of his racing in the Middle East, winning three times; 0-5 in British events and suffered a heavy defeat (albeit with something possibly amiss) at Royal Ascot 12 months ago; something to prove off his mark. |
33/1 |

19th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Consistent in Britain and UAE but he has more to do than when getting off the mark at Meydan (7f, good to firm) in February and when third in a lower grade at Haydock (1m) for new yard in May; now has tongue-tie refitted with cheekpieces added. |

20th May 2025 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
Fairly useful form when placed four times over 1m2f on the Flat for Andrew Balding last year; raced too freely on her first two stable/hurdle starts, easily brushed aside by short-odds winner when remote second at Stratford (2m, good) this month, but there is still hope she might transfer more of her Flat ability to this code. |

8th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |

Often placed but failed to win (0-8) on the Flat for Andrew Balding; took a keen hold and weakened when last of five on stable/hurdles debut at Newbury (2m, good; 12-1) seven weeks ago; may need time to acclimatise to the demands of this discipline; safer to look elsewhere. |

28th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 10y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
This course scorer might have needed his recent reappearance and is well treated if bouncing back to his best, having returned to the mark he defied at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) last August; also went close over C&D last summer; cheekpieces off, visor back on; yard hasn't been as prolific as usual in the last couple of weeks but that's likely to change before long. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |

Wore cheekpieces when just holding on in six-runner July course handicap (1m2f, good to firm) in August; visored when he stopped quickly on good to soft at Nottingham in October and not seen since a hurdles debut the following month; cheekpieces back on for this return. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Off the mark at the 18th attempt over C&D (good to firm) two weeks ago off 3lb lower on his second run for this yard, with Jake Dickson aboard him; needs to come on again in this higher grade. |

1st 1 (2) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
17-race maiden but he's on a reduced mark and made some late headway on his stable/seasonal debut at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) two weeks ago; was only beaten around 4l in that race and he could be dangerous back up in trip and down in grade; cheekpieces reapplied. |
11/2 |

7th 3 (2) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
16-race maiden who was far from disgraced in a brief spell with Denis Quinn, including when beaten a fraction over 3l despite not getting much luck at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) last time; career-low mark and this return to 1m and turf is no problem on his stable debut. |

30th May 2025 Good 1m 3f 39y Class 6 |
8st 6lb |
Lightly raced 4yo who should be capable of better than she showed on this month's handicap/seasonal debut at Beverley (1m4f, good to firm), but she was tailed off at 33-1 and it's hard to be confident on the back of that. |

Thrice-raced gelding who has shown some promise in both AW attempts, latest at Newcastle (1m2f) where he shaped as if this drop back in trip will suit; improvement possible on handicap debut. |
