13th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Useful in France for Andre Fabre last year and made a solid start for his new yard in the spring, when winning at this level at Epsom; found the drop to 6f, faster ground and step up to Group 1 company beyond him at Royal Ascot and should do much better tonight under a small penalty. |

21st Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Useful as a 2yo in France for Andre Fabre; took his form to a much higher level when making winning start for new yard in Listed race at Epsom (7f, good to soft; unraced on good or firmer) three weeks ago, the first two pulling 9l clear; races freely and should be at least as effective back at 6f; hard to pin down but the Epsom run suggests he's smart and he's one to consider. |

31st May 2024 Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Raced four times in these colours for Andre Fabre, winning on debut before contesting two Group 3s and a Group 1 (all at 7f); could do with bucking the habit of starting slowly (as was the case in his last two runs) but a repeat of his second at Longchamp (good to soft) wouldn't see him far away at this level; lacking a run may count against him. |

12th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Kept on for third at Epsom (7f, good) in August and 6l second at Sandown (7f, soft) last time behind an improved winner; the step back up in trip could be a plus (he ran well over 1m1f at Meydan in February); chance. |

12th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Useful at two and three when trained by Richard Fahey; unable to win in the Middle East last winter but he ran his best race for a while when third of nine in a 7f handicap (good) at Epsom 18 days ago, plugging on having been outpaced in the straight; today's more conventional track should suit and he'll be fine on good to soft (unraced on slower). |

3rd 1 (6) |
25th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Short-headed in 3yo Listed race over C&D last May and he ran some good races in defeat in Qatar and UAE between last November and this March; however, he returned to Britain with a 9l defeat at York last month and needs to leave that form well behind; cheekpieces reapplied. |

9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 1 |
9st 10lb |
None too consistent in 2025, running well when second in 1m Listed event at Sandown (soft) in September but poorly twice afterwards; returns from a layoff and may find that conditions place the emphasis too much on speed. |
25/1 |

24th Oct 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 6y Class 2 |
10st 0lb |
Form this term features a good effort, behind the subsequent QEII winner, at Sandown (Listed) on penultimate run; did too much up front latest; 2-2 over C&D (soft-ground novice wins) and looks interesting back here. |
9/1 |

4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Lacks consistency but produced a solid run in defeat at Listed level last time (1m, soft) and this drop back to 7f will be no hardship; Charles Bishop gets off to partner Great Acclaim but this 4yo is respected off a competitive mark. |

23rd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Just missed out in this race on his reappearance 12 months ago (good to firm); ended 2025 with two good second-place finishes in Listed company at Doncaster and Southwell; each-way shout once again. |
6/1 |
|
4th 7 (7) |
13th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Ran well in Listed grade at Salisbury on reappearance; has failed to repeat that form in two major handicaps at Ascot since; returns to the scene of his last success (6f, soft) but this is a stiffer assignment. |

26th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Acts on any ground; very useful performer who has Listed/Group form; two handicap attempts (6f) comprise a win at Doncaster last October and an excusable defeat (poorly drawn) in the Wokingham last time; effective over 7f and has the ability to get involved, even off top weight. |

21st May 2026 Good 0m 7f 15y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Her last four wins have come at this track, with two of them (7f/1m) last month; drawn wide when down the field at Chester two weeks ago but she has fared better on that front today; big run on the cards. |
4/1 |

6th May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Last four wins at Musselburgh, including two last month, latterly producing a career-best performance to see off ten rivals over 1m on good; runner-up on only Chester visit; a further 4lb rise demands even more but can't rule out in her current mood. |

13th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Won 6f handicap off fairly modest mark as 2yo and it hasn't been easy in Group 3 and Listed races this year, albeit with little between her and Key To Cotai on recent Listed Carlisle form (7f, good to firm) on the slightly revised terms; likely to need more. |

3rd 4 (2) |
26th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 195y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
A fair 6f nursery winner but she's found things tough campaigned in better company this term, last of six in 7f Epsom Listed event last time; others appeal more. |
25/1 |
|
6th 7 (7) |
31st May 2024 Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 1 |
8st 11lb |
Has won only one of her nine starts and that was a Leicester nursery last August (6f, good to firm) when well handicapped; no closer than fifth in Group 3/Listed assignments this season and this looks no easier. |
16/1 |
