19th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Goes well fresh, winning a Listed AW race (7f) in 2024 before failing to go on and it was a similar story in Bahrain this winter, winning there in December but in the ruck twice since; has a demanding task here. |
66/1 |

24th 7 (10) |
20th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Career best when getting up late on in a 7f Listed event on the AW in March but he has beaten just one rival in his two subsequent appearances, in the Group 3 Greenham (7f) and a 6f handicap at Newmarket; not a lot went right last time but this stiff 1m could trouble him, as might a tough-looking mark; hood added. |
40/1 |

6th 1 (5) |
19th May 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Dual 6f winner on turf last term and 7f Listed scorer on AW this season; comfortably held in Group 3 most recently; ran well (off 2lb lower) at York on sole handicap attempt but this looks a harder task. |

2nd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
0-11 on turf with his best efforts coming on slower than good; back up in the weights after a productive AW campaign and he has enough to prove back on turf, all the more so after his tame effort at Newcastle on Good Friday. |
33/1 |
|
14th 6 (10) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Two 6f wins at Kempton this winter and he ran as well as he ever has when a close fourth at Lingfield five weeks ago (behind Ferrous and Lakers); this stiff 6f should suit and he can make another bold bid. |
14/1 |
|
4th 2 (5) |
27th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
3-3 on AW, showing improved form to win a useful race at Kempton 16 days ago (6f); 3lb rise not beyond him and he should give it a good go in his hat-trick bid. |

10th Aug 2023 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Frankel colt who showed promise when placed over 6f/7f on good to firm at the start of the summer; given a bit of time ahead of this third start and it's likely 1m will suit him; leading claims. |
11/4 |

2nd 10 (3) |
14th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 0m 6f 212y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
400,000gns yearling; first foal; by Frankel out of 7f AW 2yo/1m turf winner (RPR 93), whose dam was a 1m Group 1 winner; 5-6 when third of seven in novice at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago, front rank until outgunned over 1f out; yard also runs By The Book; this extra 1f will help and it will be interesting to see if his backers return. |

2nd Jul 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Eight-race maiden who showed a return to form when second of ten at Southwell (7f, AW) in April; that's modest form, though, and something to prove back on turf after a two-month break; blinkers worn the last twice removed. |
6/1 |

soon led, raced in second after 1f, soon chased clear leader, headway over 2f out, soon switched right and against near rail, edged left from over 1f out, stayed on |

16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Reappeared with a win at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) in March and got up in the final strides to follow up at Southwell (7f, AW); won over 1m last summer and versatile ground-wise; this progressive 5yo is climbing the weights only slowly and could play another leading role. |
11/2 |

1st 1 (7) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Well backed at Doncaster (7f Class 4, good to soft) just over a month ago and that support was justified, as he drew clear of his 15 rivals; 4lb higher but no issues with AW and this long home straight should play to his strengths; the one to beat and he has Silvestre De Sousa in the saddle. |

26th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 217y Class 6 |
11st 2lb |
Multiple winner and there have been some good efforts in his losing run of 16, though not of late; others appeal more. |
7/1 |
|
5th 5 (2) |
27th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Gained two of his seven wins over this C&D; below form lately but endured a wide trip when last in action and is now 3lb lower than when a close second over C&D in January. |
8/1 |

7th 7 (12) |
25th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Two wins and several near-misses to his name over C&D; had plenty of chances off a sliding mark of late and will need the breaks if dropped in as anticipated from the outside stall. |

14th Aug 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Beaten at least 14l every outing; soft ground may not have helped in his two handicaps (blinkered for both) but has an awful lot to prove. |

18th Jul 2023 Soft 0m 7f 96y Class 6 |
8st 8lb |
Well below market expectations on his 5f debut here in the spring and has since finished a remote last in two more runs; first-time headgear, the stiffer test and a gelding operation are the angles in with him. |

14th Sep 2023 Good To Soft 0m 6f 111y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Runner-up in two of four starts, including nursery debut at Leicester last month (6f, good to firm) when she bumped into a good thing; non-runner on account of soft ground once though so Tuesday's rain won't have been welcomed. |
9/1 |
|
2nd 3 (8) |
13th Aug 2023 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 1lb |
Perhaps a shade disappointing when midfield in 6f Newmarket maiden last month but the form of his second over that C&D in June has been well advertised by the winner; makes nursery debut here; could have a say. |
