18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Has an underwhelming strike-rate for a horse of his ability and losing spell goes back over two years; that said, has spent over half of his career in Group 1 races, best effort when third in the 2024 Commonwealth Cup; drops back in class after a heavy defeat at this year's Royal Ascot. |

Third in the Group 1 Commonwealth Cup over C&D (good to firm) at this meeting in 2024; however, he's failed to win since; opposable once more. |

13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 10lb |
Far from disgraced in last three appearances (various grades) but finished behind some of today's rivals in those contests and needs to raise his game somewhat; on a ten-race losing sequence that goes back to Group 3 honours two years ago. |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Runner-up in the Group 1 Commonwealth Cup over C&D (good to firm) at this meeting in 2024; campaigned over 7f-1m since that November; reappeared at Haydock (7f, good) last month having been gelded and powered clear for impressive Listed win; the drop back to 6f poses a question but the stiff track and strong pace will be in his favour, and he could have a part to play. |

1st 6 (4) |
9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 1 |
9st 10lb |
Won the Group 2 Gimcrack as a 2yo and finished second in the Group 1 City Of York (7f, good to firm) last August; made no show in two Group 1s in Australia in the autumn and he's since been gelded; returns in a much lower grade than usual and very dangerous if ready to roll after six months off. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Won the Group 2 Gimcrack here in 2yo season in 2023; not beaten far when fifth in Group 1 Queen Anne at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) and his run here next time may have come too soon; beaten nearly 3l when second in Group 2 Lennox Stakes at Goodwood (7f, good) latest; may find a few too good. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Exploited his reduced mark in fine style at Doncaster (5f, good to firm) last month; came up short off an 11lb higher mark in Ireland 13 days ago, hanging left; minor placing perhaps his best hope this time. |
12/1 |
|
6th 2 (8) |
28th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Made all for an emphatic 5f Doncaster win early this month, his first success since August 2024; up 11lb for that; however, he had a higher mark early in his career when trained by Brian Meehan; definite chance, given the depth of the sprinting division in Britain, relative to Ireland. |
9/2 |
|
1st 6 (6) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
His last win was in August 2024 but he went close off a reduced mark in a 16-runner handicap at York (5f, good) last month; back up 2lb in the weights but that was a bold bid last time and he's respected. |

26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
He hasn't won since a Listed success at York (6f, soft) in October 2023; in the meantime he has often attracted support, favourite in the 2024 Stewards' Cup and last season's Ayr Gold Cup; two perfectly creditable efforts for Robert Cowell this year and he showed promise in one Tapeta run last spring; not discounted for a trainer who runs four. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Made late headway from the rear over 5f at Pontefract on stable/seasonal debut; interesting back up in trip, despite still being on a long losing spell; remains attractively treated on plenty of form. |
8/1 |

4th 3 (8) |
7th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Capable of useful form for Andrew Balding; close fourth when favourite for last year's Ayr Gold Cup; hasn't won since 2023 but looks interesting off current mark in this field on debut for new yard; remains with same owner; drops back to 5f for first time since good second (joint-best effort) in Sandown Group 3 in July 2024. |

Still to add to his debut success as a 2yo but he has taken well to AW this winter, in the frame in three Class 2 handicaps at Newcastle; looks the clear pick of the Richard Fahey contingent. |

22nd Oct 2024 Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |

0-9 since his early 2yo wins and has lacked consistency this season; good chance off current mark, provided he's suited by the step up to 7f. |

28th Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
0-8 since his early 2yo wins; however, ran respectably in first-time cheekpieces at Newmarket (6f) most recently and has possibilities in the retained headgear dropped in class. |
8/1 |
|
4th 5 (2) |
9th Aug 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
0-7 since winning his first two races when with Alice Haynes; signs of a resurgence (after being gelded) when close up over C&D in June and can be excused the following effort on his first taste of Chester; could have a part to play in the new cheekpieces. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Arrives in good heart, following a third to Badri at Windsor with a battling success on the same course (6f, good to firm) 12 days ago; up 5lb for the win but that form was boosted when runner-up Trefor went one better here on Wednesday; needs to be considered. |

11th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |

Generally consistent for current yard and recent form features a Chepstow success; met traffic issues on his way to third behind Badri and Inishfallen over C&D last time; solid claims. |
10/1 |
|
6 (6) |
28th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
First win since his 2yo debut when scoring off a reduced mark at Chepstow (6f, good to firm) 26 days ago; back up 5lb but his confidence should be boosted after that success and he has been generally consistent in handicaps; shortlisted. |
