Group 2 winner at the Curragh (5f, good) last July and won a Listed race at Naas (5f, good) this May in first-time cheekpieces (retained since); below par the next twice but on slow ground and she's not written off each-way now back on a sound surface. |

Everything fell right when given a tremendous hold-up ride by Jamie Spencer to win at 80-1 in the Group 1 Jubilee Stakes (6f, good to firm) at Royal Ascot in June; that may prove to be a one-off but he kept on for a fair seventh over York's speedy 5f in the Nunthorpe and he should get a suitably strong pace in this big field now back up in trip; not ruled out. |

25th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 13lb |
Given a tremendous hold-up ride to win the Group 1 Jubilee Stakes (6f, good to firm) at Royal Ascot which was the only time he's been ridden by today's jockey Jamie Spencer; won 5f Group 2 at Goodwood last July and good to soft ground probably wasn't ideal when fifth in the July Cup last time; however, whether Spencer will be able to repeat the Royal Ascot tactics successfully over this speedy 5f is questionable; fourth in this race last year. |

Not the easiest to place and hasn't won in Britain for four years but capable of smart form on his day, such as when second in the King's Stand here in 2020 (good to soft; suited by good or quicker); however, he retains all his ability and brings a touch of class to his first handicap in Britain. |

23rd Sep 2023 Heavy 0m 5f 34y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Tough sprinter who looks better than ever this season; cracking effort to win a Haydock handicap (5f, good) a fortnight ago and he bumped into a rapid improver at Doncaster on Saturday; effective on very soft ground and should make another bold bid. |
9/4 |

2nd 2 (1) |
17th Sep 2023 Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 1 |
9st 13lb |
Solid form in Group races this year, notably his Goodwood third, and better than ever with his mighty weight-carrying effort in a good Haydock handicap last week; stayed on strongly off a good pace on that occasion to win with something to spare (good Topspeed figure); fully effective on soft and he's the one to beat on ratings; solid contender. |
11/8 |

1st 1 (3) |
9th Sep 2023 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |

Yet to win in 2023 but not for a lack of effort, regularly acquitting himself with credit in top sprints; near his best when third in a Group 2 at Goodwood five weeks ago and that form looks rock solid; going back up 6lb does leave him with something to find on this year's handicap runs though. |
