21st May 2023 Good 1m 1f 170y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Placed on his three starts (1m-8.6f, soft/AW), with the form of last month's second at Wolverhampton having been given a big boost subsequently; gelded since; his fine pedigree suggests he will improve for the step up in trip on handicap debut and there's lots to like. |

Well-bred colt who was placed twice in October, more recently when keeping on for clear third of 13 on AW debut at Kempton (1m); will play a major role if in similar form here. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Fourth in this race last year off the same mark; fine efforts when runner-up in February on first two starts (2m, AW) since rejoining this yard, but reportedly made a respiratory noise next time and, following his third wind operation, he was a soundly beaten outsider in Listed race four weeks ago; others seem more solid. |
40/1 |

5th 5 (4) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 5f 188y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Fine efforts when runner-up in 2m AW handicaps in February on first two starts since rejoining this yard; reportedly made a respiratory noise at Musselburgh in April and he's had a third wind operation since; however, even if returning to form, a career-best if needed from this 6yo today. |
25/1 |

6th 4 (4) |
4th Apr 2026 Good 1m 5f 216y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
A poor show last May prompted a second wind operation and it was a solid campaign otherwise; never better than when second this February in 2m AW handicaps at Wolverhampton and Lingfield, but peak turf form isn't far behind it and he'll probably be on the premises. |

23rd Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Continues to tumble down the weights and he's one to watch in the betting in a first-time tongue-tie, but he's been well beaten on all three starts this season and a major turnaround is required. |
16/1 |
|
11th 8 (5) |
11th Aug 2024 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Gained both wins over C&D but seems badly to have lost his way since his dead-heat here last June; well-beaten 50-1 shot on both appearances this year; considered only if much stronger in the betting today. |
12/1 |
|
14th 11 (4) |
14th May 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Both wins at Ripon (1m, good to firm), the latest from 5lb higher last summer; hasn't beaten many in his last four starts including on his recent Thirsk reappearance; best watched for now. |

21st Sep 2023 Good To Soft 1m 0f 6y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Well-beaten fifth in first two handicaps in May/June (1m2f, good) and returns from a break with something to prove, but he's been gelded since and that may help this lightly raced 3yo tap back into his earlier promise (including on soft/heavy ground); interesting contender. |

Opened his account in 1m2f Kempton novice in April but came in a well-held fifth on his handicap debut at Ripon (1m2f) following month; cheekpieces are reached for now with more required. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |

He has been threatening to add to his six wins, with a third at Pontefract and second at Thirsk on his last two starts; on the downside he has been unplaced in all seven visits to York. |
7/1 |

2nd 11 (11) |
1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
He has run well over C&D in the past, including in May, and he didn't run badly when third of six in a Class 3 handicap at Pontefract (6f, good) ten days ago; each-way shout. |

Comfortably beat Rock Opera over C&D in spring 2025, albeit was in better form at the time, that success the middle leg of a hat-trick; not solid on 2026 results but has slipped to an attractive mark. |

9st 9lb |
Took advantage of a drop in the weights when winning a 0-55 contest by a neck over C&D three weeks ago; 5lb rise puts him on his previous winning mark and although not the easiest of rides, Tom Queally knows him well (2-8 on him); major player. |

9th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Disappointing favourite in first-time blinkers at Bath (11.6f, good) last month but that headgear is dispensed with and cheekpieces return; drops into a 0-55 for the first time and is 5lb lower than when winning over C&D (good to firm) last July; respected; stable also runs Letsbeatsepsis. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 2m 3f 110y |
11st 12lb |
Long-standing maiden finally got it done when winning readily over hurdles last month; second in three of 13 chase starts, and some fair runs over fences without being placed in April/May; these types can kick on once they get their heads in front, and Donoghue prefers him to Sophia Rose. |
5/1 |

1st 6 |
14th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 2f 185y |

Maiden has finished second 14 times and third six times across all codes; reverted from chasing to be second in Clonmel maiden hurdle last week. |

5th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 113y |

Maiden under all codes in 33 races including 14 over hurdles but placed lots of times; some good chase runs lately (not last time) and should go well if back to best hurdles form. |
