20th May 2023 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
8st 13lb |
Her race career did not begin until the end of July last year but she made a lightning start; snatched the Listed Galtres at York (1m4f, good) on second outing, having been pushed along in rear entering the straight; contrastingly always prominent in the St Leger at Doncaster (14.5f, good to soft) and went on 3f out, battling on well to finish second but demoted to fourth due to interference; tongue tied first time today; very classy prospect if she builds on those initial achievements. |

21st Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Record of 321 since wearing blinkers, most recently landing the Wolferton at Royal Ascot (1m2f Listed, good to firm) where he won well and looked better than ever; headgear retained; faces a stiffer task on first Group 1 attempt and owner's retained rider Jim Crowley prefers Alflaila. |

1st 9 (8) |
18th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Group 2 winner (1m4f) last term; beaten favourite in two runs in Britain with blinkers added this spring but he ran right up to his best when second to Passenger in 1m2f Chester Group 2 (good to firm; also acts on heavy) last time, with the pair well clear; solid chance. |

29th Jul 2023 Soft 1m 3f 211y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
One of four runners for Ballydoyle; losing spell goes back to his Belmont Derby success two years ago; retains plenty of ability and finished second in the Wolferton at Royal Ascot (1m2f, good) most recently; still very useful but he's bottom of this elite pack on ratings. |
100/1 |
|
2nd 5 (1) |
20th Jun 2023 Good 1m 1f 212y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
1m2f Grade 1 winner in the US in 2021; lightly raced in the last 18 months but showed he retains his ability when close third in 1m4f Newbury Group 3 (good) one month ago and it's possible he could take another step forward now; in the mix. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 1 (7) |
20th May 2023 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Well-beaten favourite in the 2021 Derby; all subsequent runs that year were in USA (won first of them) and Hong Kong; well below form when blinkered on Lingfield AW in November on sole start last season and he was again well held in Listed race at Navan (1m6f, heavy) this April; today's trip/ground looks more suitable but confidence in him has been seriously dented. |

7th Jul 2023 Good To Soft 2m 0f 50y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Best on good or firmer; 2021 victories included the Breeders' Cup Turf but there were mixed messages (he looked less than straightforward) in his abbreviated 2022 campaign; 317 days off before below form in his two starts this term but the latest was the 2m4f Gold Cup at Royal Ascot (7f further than he'd gone before) and he showed enough, passing some fading rivals, to suggest he is still very much the one to beat over 2m at this much lower level. |
1/2 |

6th 10 (6) |
22nd Jun 2023 Good 2m 3f 210y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Best on good or firmer; 2021 victories included Breeders' Cup Turf but there were mixed messages (he looked less than straightforward) in his abbreviated 2022 campaign; had clearly the best form going into Newbury Group 3 last month when he came only fourth, admittedly after 317 days off; usually stays on well and his dam won at up to 2m, but it's hard to be confident that this test (7f further than he's gone before) will see him back in the best light. |
11/1 |
|
4th 6 (5) |
20th May 2023 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
2021 victories included the Breeders' Cup Turf; while he looked less than straightforward in 2022, two of his placed efforts (Meydan and Belmont Park) last spring were among his best form and he ended that campaign with a Group 2 win over 1m4f at Newmarket in July; not one to trust implicitly but he again brings clearly the best form. |

19th Aug 2023 Good 1m 5f 61y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Raced mostly on good/firmer but ran well on soft once in France; broke a losing sequence when dropping from Group races to a five-runner Listed event at Newmarket (1m4f) seven weeks ago on latest outing; has proven stamina and plenty of form that would see him seriously involved. |

1st 3 (2) |
1st Jul 2023 Good To Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Raced mostly on good/firmer; losing spell goes back to his Queen's Vase success two years ago but he has shown smart form on occasions since, including in Group races at Meydan this year; has the advantage of recent match practice, unlike Al Aasy and stablemate New London; runner-up in this race 12 months ago; can't be dismissed. |

18th Apr 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Cruised into contention and breezed clear for an easy win over C&D in January when last seen, taking AW record to 3-6 and looking a suitable type for this prize; could well defy a 9lb rise. |

travelled strongly, held up in rear, steady headway when short of room from 2f out, switched right and led final 110yds, soon niggled along briefly and went clear, readily |

1st Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Has proved consistent since reappearing for Jack Morland in January (4243514) with the win coming at Haydock (10.5f, good to firm) in August; record around here (1m3f/1m4f) reads 123 and another big run would be no surprise. |

4th 6 (12) |
13th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Mostly competitive off reduced marks for new yard this season and Haydock (1m2f, good to firm) five weeks ago saw him lead final 1f to break a long losing run, doing it in good style too; back up 5lb but he used to be effective on a range of ground and has returned to serious calculations. |
