14th Sep 2025 Yielding 0m 5f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Very experienced for his age; winner of six of his 16 starts and placed eight times; strong form in winning with something to spare from Mgheera in a C&D Group 2 in July; faded in the final quarter-mile of the Nunthorpe; could bounce back and helps to give the stable a strong hand, with Bucanero Fuerte also in the mix. |

22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 13lb |
Often leads; has had plenty of racing for his tender years but he's tough and reliable and his first 5f run of the year saw him achieve strong form in winning with something to spare from Mgheera in a Group 2 at the Curragh (good; acts well on firm) in July; still has potential over 5f. |

19th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Front running 3yo is a two-time Group 3 winner at 5.5f-6f; narrowly denied in the Grade 1 Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf last November on his last start over 5f (firm); touched off in the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot last month (6f, gd-fm); right in the mix on official ratings and a bold bid looks likely. |

11th Oct 2025 Yielding To Soft 0m 7f 0y |
9st 6lb |
Won his maiden here and added a rated race at the Curragh two weeks ago (7f, soft); nudged up 3lb but for that but it seems a fair rise given the RPR he produced. |

Won a Naas maiden in testing ground over this trip on seasonal debut; placed in conditions races over 1m and 6f after but was poor after a break in a Roscommon handicap last time; questions now. |

1st Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 0m 7f 94y |
10st 0lb |
Won a 7f Naas maiden in testing ground in March before a solid run at Cork (1m) behind a quality rival; 6f on fast ground didn't suit last time but back on an easy surface at 7f will and is respected on handicap debut. |

21st May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Juvenile winner for Jim Bolger (Cork, 5f maiden, heavy); disappointing since joining this trainer (0-6), falling 20lb in the weights; slowly away and never involved at Thirsk (6f, good; 40-1) latest; hard to recommend now returning to 7f. |

18th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Dropping down the weights and his latest Pontefract fifth was marginally more encouraging; more required back up in class though. |

5th 1 (7) |
7th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 3y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Thrown in on his form for Jim Bolger but he has finished down the field in four runs for new connections, weakening over 7f and 6f; the return of a tongue tie may help, as will the drop into a Class 6, so not discounted back at 5f for the owners who took this race 12 months ago. |

8st 13lb |
Promise in two Curragh starts in good company for Jack Davison early last season; stable debut last October (after a break) was too bad to be true; however, she was always at the back on handicap debut at Fairyhouse in May. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 182y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Back-to-back 6f wins at Windsor (good to firm) and Ascot (good to soft) in 2025; has taken a while to get going this season but he shaped as if coming to the boil when sixth of 14 at Newbury (led briefly over 1f out) two weeks ago; back to his last winning mark and should be at concert pitch now. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Proved somewhat resurgent at Ascot last week in third start for Charlie Pike and may build on that effort; only 1lb above last winning mark and can't be ruled out. |

5th 3 (3) |
8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Two 6f wins at the end of last summer, at Windsor (good to firm) and over C&D (good to soft); just 2lb higher than for the latter but he's hard to assess now, having been well held over an inadequate 5f on his yard debut (AW) then eased following serious interference at Newbury; too much to prove just now but one to keep an eye on. |
