24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
3yo whose seven starts have all been at 6f; won the Group 2 Gimcrack here (good to firm) last August and a fine second on both outings this year in the Group 1 Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot and the Group 3 Hackwood Stakes at Newbury; has shaped the last twice as though he could be well suited by 7f and he's one to consider; 3yos won five in a row from 2015-2019. |

14th Sep 2023 Good To Soft 0m 6f 111y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Ballydoyle colt who has a very solid record thus far, having won at Naas then finished second in the Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot and the Gimcrack at York; yet to race on ground worse than good to yielding; big player on form. |
2/1 |

in touch with leaders, headway towards near side 2f out, went second and pressed leader over 1f out, intimidated by rival inside final furlong, kept on |

2nd 12 (15) |
21st Jun 2023 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
200,000gns yearling who was sent off 5-6 for his Naas debut (6f, good to yielding) last month but was forced to battle hard to come out on top; form doesn't look anything special, but no surprise if he takes a big step forward from that and he's respected for stable that has won this race three times since 2015; middle draw could be an issue, however. |

2nd Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Third in the Group 2 Gimcrack at York (6f, good to firm) last August and highly creditable fifth of 29 off top weight in the Britannia Handicap at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) last time; others have better form but this lightly raced sort may have more to offer; not ruled out. |
9/1 |
|
5th 1 (23) |
20th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Newmarket novice winner who was then beaten only 2l in the Group 2 Gimcrack at York's August meeting (6f, good to firm); wasn't seen again until 19 days ago when second to a dark one when penalised at Doncaster (7f, good); has some class about him but topweights have a poor record in the Britannia. |
22/1 |
|
2nd 4 (4) |
1st Jun 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Won on 6f Newmarket debut last August and excellent third in the Group 2 Gimcrack at York (6f, good to firm) three weeks later; should be as effective at 7f and this Group 1-entered colt sets the bar high back in a novice. |

10th Aug 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Has run with credit in Group and Listed company since winning at the latter level as 2yo (good) and he gave it a very good shot on handicap debut at Chester (6f, good) recently when pressing hard throughout; shade more to prove up 1lb with this stiffer test. |
12/1 |

3rd 1 (6) |
27th Jul 2024 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Listed winner at two and twice placed at that level subsequently; latest fifth in Germany was a good effort on RPRs and he's been gelded since; on a tough mark for belated handicap debut but he's earned it. |
15/2 |

18th May 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Useful colt who won a Listed event over this C&D (good) as a 2yo and was just denied at Chantilly (6.5f, AW) on his reappearance in March; however, he was disappointing on soft turf back at Chantilly five weeks ago and others have stronger claims on form. |

9th Sep 2023 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Beat the smart Big Evs on his second run but was behind that rival at Royal Ascot and has since had his limitations further exposed; while he didn't run at all badly in the Gimcrack, others appeal more here. |

25th Oct 2024 Soft 0m 6f 2y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
3yo who has made no impact on good to firm going on his last three starts but his two encounters with slow ground have produced positive results, specifically a Listed third at York (6f, soft) last October and a handicap win at Thirsk (6f, good to soft) this July; blinkers go on; interesting. |
25/1 |

23th 21 (2) |
21st Sep 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |

C&D win as a 2yo; returned from wind and gelding operations to win a Thirsk handicap (6f, good to soft) in July; not so good twice since and yard have stronger claims elsewhere. |
33/1 |

Lightly raced 3yo; returned in May from gelding and wind operations to win a 6f handicap at Thirsk in July (good to soft); disappointing at Goodwood (7f, good to firm) three weeks ago; others look safer. |

26th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y |
9st 10lb |
Highly tried last season after his successful debut, running particularly well in a Group 3 at Deauville; remains in the same ownership this year despite changing yards and, although behind Kendall Roy two runs back, he showed bright speed and made all for a narrow success at Naas (6f, good; second-time blinkers); up 5lb but reverting to 5f shouldn't be an issue. |

22nd Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Useful as a 2yo and has taken his form to a higher level this term, following a win in the Craven at Newmarket with third in the 2,000 Guineas and second in the Irish equivalent; beaten a head by stablemate Rosallion at the Curragh (with River Tiber on their heels in third) and the form was boosted when that horse won Tuesday's St James's Palace; best efforts on good ground; should have no problem with today's drop in distance and holds solid claims despite 3lb penalty. |

Successful 5f debut at Carlisle but Group 2 races over 6f at Royal Ascot and York proved beyond him last summer; has plenty to prove on return from an absence and easier handicaps await later. |
