27th Jul 2024 Good 1m 3f 211y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Well held in soft-ground St Leger; otherwise a largely progressive sort at up to 1m6f; has dropped back to 1m4f this season, getting up on the line at Newbury (Group 3) then respectable third at Royal Ascot (Group 2) where a stronger pace would have suited; remains of interest, with this race likely to pan out favourably. |

22nd Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Won the Melrose Handicap at York (1m6f, good to firm) last August and bounced back from soft-ground St Leger flop for Listed win here (1m6f, good) last October; returned with win in Group 3 Aston Park Stakes at Newbury (1m4f, good) last month, when clear with one who readily went one better in Listed race next time; this 4yo is firmly on the up for his top yard; player. |

9st 2lb |
Won the highly competitive Melrose Handicap at last year's Ebor meeting (1m6f, good to firm); well behind Desert Hero in the St Leger next time (only time he's tackled soft ground) but resumed his progression with success in a 1m6f Ascot Listed race (good) on his final 3yo start; everything about his profile points to him doing even better at four. |

9st 3lb |
1m2f Listed race here (good to firm) last May was the last leg in a four-timer; no joy in his seven races since but he was pipped in Group 3 at Newbury (1m4f, good) on latest, form which gives him a big chance. |

Won a 1m2f Goodwood Listed (good to firm) last May and also placed in 1m4f Newmarket Group 3 (heavy) on final 4-y-o start; below that level in his two outings this year, though he suffered interference when 7l fifth of sixth in the Jockey Club Stakes at Newmarket (1m4f) latest. |

Free-goer but he's very classy and produced career-best form when making light of top weight in the Rosebery Handicap here in April; creditable third in 1m4f Newbury Group 3 (good) next time, before well beaten at Royal Ascot (28-1); off since but he'd have a say if returning to that Rosebery form. |

Free-goer but he's very classy, producing a really smart handicap performance when making light of top weight in the competitive Rosebery on Kempton AW (1m3f) in April; creditable third in 1m4f Newbury Group 3 (good) since; probably playing for a place at best. |

Completed hat-trick in Newmarket handicap (1m4f, good) in May, the first two legs having come on heavy ground; well beaten in a Royal Ascot handicap, a Group 2 and a Listed race on his last three outings and he needs a career best to win this. |

9st 3lb |
Won C&D handicap (good) at this meeting 12 months ago and followed up in Group 3 Gordon Stakes at Goodwood (1m4f, soft); campaign concluded with third to Continuous in the St Leger (1m6f, soft) and returned with near-miss over inadequate 1m2f in Group 3 Gordon Richards at Sandown (good to soft); disappointing at Newbury since but the Sandown effort firmly indicated he was set for a very good year, and he can play a leading role if bouncing back. |

Most progressive at three, winning Royal Ascot handicap and Group 3 Gordon at Goodwood (both 1m4f) before fine third in the St Leger (gelded after); excellent effort when only narrowly denied in 1m2f Sandown Group 3 on reappearance; the return to 1m4f looks sure to see him in a better light and he'll be tough to beat for a yard with good recent record in this. |

Very promising at two (Listed/Group 3 winner) but well beaten in the Dante at York on sole 3yo start and fared no better in 1m2f Sandown Group 3 (Desert Hero second) on reappearance three weeks ago; has lots to prove at present. |

Ran just once last year, when well beaten in the Dante at York in May (finished lame); gelded since; very promising 2yo in 2022, landing the Group 3 Zetland Stakes at Newmarket (1m2f, good) that October, and it will be no surprise if he returns with a big performance for his leading yard. |
