25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Group 1 Futurity winner (on heavy ground) on this weekend as a 2yo; smart form on his day in a mixed record since, this season's plus points being his close second to Al Aasy in April and the narrow defeat when finishing strongly in Listed race at Goodwood last time (first run as a gelding); they were over 1m2f but last season's best efforts were at 1m4f and 1m5f; player if this is another of his good days. |

9st 4lb |
Group 1 winner (on heavy ground) as a 2yo; fell short of Classic standard last term but bagged Group 3 honours and ran well at that level on penultimate start (1m2f, good; at Sandown); gelded since facing a stiffer task in the Coronation Cup; leading player on ratings. |

13th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Suited by ground softer than good; made all in the 2024 German 2,000 Guineas but struggled in French Group 1 next time; best to assume he'll need the outing on return from 14-month absence, unless the market suggests otherwise. |

3rd May 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Ffos Las maiden winner (7.4f, soft) last August who twice made the frame at Group 3 level before excelling himself when second of seven in the Group 1 Kameko Futurity at Doncaster (1m, heavy) in October; slightly disappointing when only third of seven in a Deauville Group 3 (7f, heavy) last month, but may have had an excuse and this looks a good opportunity. |

8st 13lb |
Twice a winner on soft and third in last October's 2yo Group 1 on heavy at Doncaster; soundly beaten in the Derby on fourth run this season; first-time cheekpieces and back near the Doncaster form when second of five in Listed race at Hamilton (1m3f, good) in July on latest outing but he has something to find with the comfortable winner Kalpana; makes AW debut. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 5f 188y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Fourth in the 2024 Derby and St Leger; however, well held in Saudi Arabia and Dubai on his only two starts last year, left Owen Burrows for 16,000gns last October, gelded and never dangerous in 2m Ascot Group 3 (150-1) on return, so he seems to be swimming against the tide in this good race. |
50/1 |

6th 5 (4) |
1st May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 209y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
A novice event remains his only win from ten races but he was fourth in the 2024 Derby and St Leger; well held in Saudi Arabia and Dubai on his only two starts last year, left Owen Burrows for 16,000gns last October and gelded last month; some caution has to be advised. |
100/1 |

4th 1 (6) |
14th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 6f 115y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Unraced on firmer than good; fourth in Group 1 Futurity here (1m, heavy) last October; sole win was a novice event but he came from last (over 5f out) to fourth in a 16-runner race for the Derby at Epsom (1m4f, good to soft) next time and also stayed on when beaten a neck in Listed contest at Windsor (11.4f, soft) three weeks ago; wore cheekpieces in those last two starts but now tries blinkers; the trip makes some appeal but he does need to improve. |

16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Bright start to last season culminated in neck second when favourite for this contest; broadly not in the same form since, most recently last of six (behind two of today's opponents) when bidding for repeat success in Sandown Group 2; big revival is needed in first-time headgear. |
40/1 |

6th 4 (3) |
24th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Below best in three of his last four outings in 2025 but commenced the campaign splendidly, winning twice (including in this race) then going close in the Group 1 Lockinge; while today may be a good time to catch him, he faces a slightly stiffer assignment in this field. |
12/1 |
|
3 (16) |
18th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Soundly beaten fourth in this last year (soft); an improved performer this season, winning Sandown Group 2 (1m, good) then going close in the Group 1 Lockinge (1m, good to firm); mixed form since, finishing down the field in the Queen Anne over C&D and also in the Moulin last time, but in between he was a close third in the Jacques Le Marois; each-way claims if on song. |

20th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y |
9st 10lb |
Ended last season with two Pattern wins (1m1f/1m, good) at Leopardstown, proving suited by dropping back in trip after being tried over middle distances; upset in stalls and withdrawn on intended seasonal debut at Leopardstown; dropped away tamely in the Queen Anne; may have needed the run and will be hard to beat if recapturing his best form. |

9th 4 (1) |
17th Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Ballydoyle colt who was withdrawn last month on intended reappearance, having got upset in the stalls; ended last season with two Group wins (1m1f/1m, good) at Leopardstown, proving suited by dropping back in distance; looks a potential threat in this division this term but, being the only seasonal debutant in the field, the market signals may prove the best guide. |
8/1 |

11th May 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y |
10st 0lb |
C&D Group 2 winner at two; experienced a couple of reverses last season after a creditable fourth in the Poulains; floundered in testing conditions in the Prix du Jockey-Club and failed to stay 1m4f in the King Edward VII Stakes; redeemed himself with a handsome 1m1f at this venue and signed off with an emphatic C&D win from Mutasarref. |

29th Apr 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
18-race maiden but he returned to some form when third of 13 over this C&D 24 days ago, albeit he didn't help his chance by hanging left; may be able to build on that. |

3rd 3 (8) |
5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Highly tried on occasion by Ben Brookhouse and regressed sharply last year prior to being sold for £5,000 in October; big prices and well held in four AW runs for this yard, which also saddles Havana Club; hard to latch on to unless there's been market support behind him. |

Won the Convivial Maiden at York (7f, good to firm) in August and Listed runner-up at Dundalk (7f, AW) three weeks ago; however, in between those he was a soundly beaten fourth behind Dancing Gemini in a Listed race here (7f, soft) and he's down the pecking order today. |
