22nd Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Comfortably won 8.5f handicap at Epsom (good; unraced on firmer) in April; good second over 1m2f at Goodwood (heavy; made most) ten days later and back at Epsom (good to soft) on Derby Day; raced freely in mid-division for the latter race, so he should be able to find extra if settling better but having such a low draw again may not help. |

2nd 8 (1) |
1st Jun 2024 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Comfortable winner of 8.5f handicap at Epsom (good) in April and good second of six at Goodwood (1m2f, heavy; made most) ten days later; another 3lb higher today but has strong claims, for trainer who won this race in 2017, 2019 and 2022. |

31st Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 14y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Seems to go on most ground and made it 21st-time lucky with a short-head success from The Bureau Club over C&D this month; 4lb out of the weights so 7lb higher, which may be enough to anchor him. |

Good 2yo form; remains a maiden after 20 starts but he's fallen a long way in the weights and, at odds of 4-1, was a clear second over C&D 55 days ago; considered. |

28th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 132y |
11st 12lb |
Flat winner; won impressively on hurdles debut at Down Royal and then touched off in the Royal Bond by Koktail Brut; further behind that rival in DRF Grade 1 and beaten a neck by Le Labo in Grade 3 at Naas; still in the mix when falling at the last at Fairyhouse last time in first-time cheekpieces (discarded); can go close with a clear round. |
8/1 |

5th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 0f 0y |
11st 4lb |
Three Flat turf wins, including a Leopardstown premier handicap on heavy; has taken well to hurdling, winning Down Royal maiden and just denied by Koktail Brut in Grade 2 Royal Bond over C&D; 2l behind Koktail Brut when fifth in DRF Grade 1; sloppy jumping proved costly when beaten a neck by Le Labo at Navan; first time with cheekpieces. |

Three Flat turf wins, including a Leopardstown premier handicap on heavy; has taken well to hurdling, winning Down Royal maiden and just denied in Grade 2 Royal Bond at Fairyhouse; DRF fifth at Grade 1 level wasn't a bad effort either; skips the Supreme for this and sets the standard. |

19th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Two handicap wins off top weight last year (1m2f, good) and he was a Listed runner-up at Chester (1m4f, good to soft) last Saturday on his belated reappearance; this front-runner can make another bold bid provided today's second start back from the absence doesn't come too soon. |
9/1 |
|
2nd 2 (2) |
12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 63y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Last seen finishing tailed off in the November Handicap; the season had gone well prior to that, winning twice at about 1m2f and also finishing third in this race; this prominent racer loves it here but his stamina looked stretched by this far last year and a ten-month absence will probably count against him. |
8/1 |
|
1 (1) |
25th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 2f 43y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Front-runner who defied top weight at York (1m2f, good) a fortnight ago and won over this C&D (good to soft) last September; has run some good races on soft ground in the past; he's just 2lb higher than last time and can produce another bold show. |

19th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |

Runner-up off 1lb higher at Doncaster (1m2f, good to firm) last month, but he's struggled in both subsequent runs and overall record is now 1-30. |

6th 8 (5) |

Heavy defeats in two AW starts, both on this track in 2025; more of the same for much of this year and although there were more hopeful signs in midsummer, he was said to have never travelled when tailed off at Redcar last time. |

0-12 since winning his first two starts in 2023; runner-up twice (1m3f/1m4f) this summer but below that level on his last three outings (behind Parisian Scholar at Redcar latest). |
12/1 |

7th 3 (9) |
3rd Oct 2026 Good 1m 5f 218y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
0-11 since winning his first two starts in 2023; runner-up twice (1m3f/1m4f) this summer but three of his last four results were well below that level; rearing as the stalls opened did not help when he tried 1m5f at Ayr last time and he was also hampered over 2f out, but others look more solid. |

2nd Oct 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 209y Class 3 |
10st 4lb |
Latest of his useful Flat form was an AW win in February 2025 but he failed to shine in his other two Flat starts last year; flourished as a hurdler instead and perhaps this run will be needed before a return to that sphere; the market may guide. |
10/1 |
|
14th 12 |
10th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 0y Class 1 |
11st 6lb |
Has performed well in several notable handicaps, including a strong success at Windsor (2m; beat the subsequent County winner) in January and good second at the Cheltenham Festival (upped to 2m4f, soft) last time; solid contender who looks set for another big run. |
13/2 |

2nd 23 |
13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 56y Class 2 |
11st 1lb |
Fairly useful hurdler at about 2m and ran creditably (lost two places close home; finished fourth) in the Fred Winter at this meeting 12 months ago; bagged a valuable pot at Windsor (soft) in January but form dipped last time; goes into unknown territory over this longer distance. |

Running well off a reduced mark prior to winning at Sandown (1m, good to firm) last month, and another good run when third of eight at Windsor (1m, soft) last time; he might not be far away. |

3rd 3 (2) |
29th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |

7/1 |

1st 2 (2) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

His losing run is up to 13 and he's not as good as he was, but off a reduced mark he's run well to be third on his last three outings, over C&D (good to firm) last time after a two-month break; could be thereabouts. |

Two creditable shows in midwinter, including over C&D, but his sole win was back in 2023 and he ran no sort of race on this track in January; needs to shrug that off. |

6th Jul 2024 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |

1st Jun 2024 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |

Sole win from eight starts came last August, following a close call at this track (soft) the time before; has contested three 1m2f handicaps this term, easily best of those efforts when third at Sandown (good to soft; 2lb lower today) on second occasion; never dangerous in London Gold Cup at Newbury latest; others may bring more potential. |
