23rd May 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 6f 0y |
9st 5lb |
All three wins have come at 1m; back after a spell in the Emirates; not far off best when touched off by Elnajmm in the 7f Group 2 Al Fahidi Fort in January; beaten 3l in fourth behind the same horse in a Group 3 last time; blinkered first time now; not appealing at this trip. |

9st 10lb |
Career-best when winning C&D Listed Amethyst Stakes in May (good), coming from well off pace; similar tactics employed in Group Desmond Stakes over C&D last month but left with too much to do when strong-finishing 1l third to front-running Johan; likely stronger pace here should suit but this looks a deeper race. |

2024 form featured a 1m Naas handicap win and third in the 7f Group 3 Jersey Stakes; found 6f inadequate at Cork on seasonal debut; much more at home when winning a Listed race over C&D in May; has a bit to find with Mutasarref and Lord Massusus on running in a 7f Group 2 event at the Curragh last month. |

31st Jul 2024 Good 1m 3f 218y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Short-priced favourite in maidens on first four starts, twice making most when runner-up over 1m in the mud, before getting up in the final 1f at Chester (1m2f, good) in May; 1m4f on good to firm did not work out on handicap debut at Royal Ascot (14-1) but he's worth a second crack at the trip. |

20th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Short-priced favourite in maidens all four starts; twice made most when runner-up over 1m in the mud, before getting up in the final 1f at Chester (good; unraced on firmer) six weeks ago when upped to 10.3f; others have come here by more flashy routes but it looks as if 1m4f will suit him well. |

24th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 51y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Useful handicapper on the Flat; made a winning hurdles debut at Sedgefield last month (2m1f, good), beating an odds-on shot who won next time, the pair well clear; penalised; the one to beat. |

8th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
His time with Aidan O'Brien and Ivan Furtado was on the chequered side but three bits of useful form read well compared to this mark, including his staying-on fourth at Newcastle (2m, AW) in December off 5lb higher; made a successful yard/hurdles debut at Sedgefield four weeks ago, which is a light year away from this assignment but a case can be made. |
16/1 |

1st 1 |
10th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 178y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Won a Listed race (1m6f, good; awarded the race) on the Flat when with Aidan O'Brien (RPR 103); best of five efforts for Ivan Furtado was over 16.5f (AW) at Southwell in December; looks an interesting recruit on his hurdles and stable debut. |

Dual course winner last spring who was well fancied over C&D on Friday, only to overrace in a messy affair; needs considering under Oisin Murphy, who's taking a first ride for the trainer (always to be respected with runners here). |

11th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 87y Class 1 |
11st 8lb |
Progress on the Flat featured a 1m2f maiden win on good ground; has wasted no time in raising his profile as a hurdler and this Navan maiden winner pocketed valuable course experience when a rallying third behind dead-heaters Quantock Hills and Teriferma here in December (good to soft); beaten since in a Punchestown heavy-ground handicap won by Slurricane, but can jump better than he did that day and nothing was finishing stronger; has more scope than your typical ex-Flat 4yo; makes the shortlist in first-time headgear. |

Showed good form in 2024 with a trio of wins from 1m2f-1m6f and runner-up in three of last four starts last term; plenty to take from seasonal return at Gowran in April when fourth to Holy See (1m4f, soft), rallying again late on; one to consider. |
