Best 2yo run was on turf here but he suffered heavy defeats at Newmarket in his only two turf races last term, admittedly absent five months in between; surged back to form on AW last October-December but last month's run was not so good; blinkers are given a go and overall improvement is needed. |

Useful colt who ended his 2023 campaign with respectable efforts in Listed grade elsewhere; 2-2 at Newcastle, including a 1l success off just 1lb lower on sole handicap attempt; interesting returned to this venue on seasonal debut. |

17th Oct 2023 Standard 1m 4f 99y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Had been enjoying a consistent season prior to a poor one at York in August, when said to have run flat; the break could have helped but he's 9lb higher than when winning at Haydock, so will need a career best on just his second AW start. |

25th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 3f 188y Class 2 |

Going great guns this term, including with his Old Newton Cup win at Haydock (1m4f, good to firm) and going oh so close in a Shergar Cup race at Ascot 13 days ago; up another 5lb but it's hard to keep him out of the picture, bidding to end Paul Hanagan's superb riding career on a winning note. |

Reserve; below form at this meeting last year; going great guns this season with three places prior to his win from Scampi in the Old Newton Cup at Haydock (1m4f, good to firm; probably okay on good to soft) five weeks ago; up another 5lb but needs plenty of respect. |

9st 7lb |
Won a strong conditions event over 1m1f at Goodwood last year on good to firm but missed the same race last week when the rain arrived; career-best RPR when fourth in 1m2f Saudi Group 2 in February and although he came last to Haatem in Royal Ascot Listed race (second in it last year) in June, getting badly hampered accounts for that; major player if the ground is okay. |

9st 8lb |
Won the 2024 Northumberland Plate (2m, AW) and also a Group 3 handicap in Australia (1m4f, good) last October; usually held up and he came from the back when seventh of 20 in this race last year; whether he's well enough handicapped to win this time round remains to be seen but he's shown enough in his two British starts this summer to demand each-way respect. |

Won last season's Northumberland Plate (2m, AW) and also a Group 3 handicap in Australia (1m4f, good) last October; some fair efforts in Meydan earlier this year, and also in the Northumberland Plate a fortnight ago following a break, but he needs to raise his game to take this. |

28th Jun 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |

Usually runs well at Newcastle, where he won this race last year in good style; took a big prize in Australia last October and struck up a solid sequence over the winter; absent 119 days and 12lb higher than 12 months ago, which surely demands a career best, but needs respect. |

Two wins on the Flat, rated as high as 95 when with Sir Mark Prescott; a long way below that in a Flat event at Listowel a month ago; took well enough to hurdling in four outings between March and June, best effort when second at Punchestown in May; let down by his jumping at Downpatrick in September; good chance if producing his best on first-time cheekpieces. |

Won a twice on the Flat for Sir Mark Prescott and has made the frame on all four starts over hurdles; weak finishing effort at Punchestown in June provides cause for concern, but looks the clear pick of these runners based on his Naas third in April and Punchestown second in May. |

Third in the 1m6f Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot in 2021 but seen mostly over 1m4f since, running with credit in defeat last term for the Gosdens; had wind and gelding operations before his debut for this stable in October and shaped better than last in that Listed race might suggest; not entirely dismissed. |
