23rd Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Acts on good to firm and good to soft; solid record, having won C&D maiden comfortably then finished half-length second in two Group 2 events over 6f, latest at Goodwood (Richmond Stakes) on debut for new connections; manifestly threatening to win a race of this prestige. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 7 (6) |
1st Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
High promise over 6f for Kevin Ryan, scoring comfortably at York (good to soft) then clear second in the Group 2 Railway Stakes at the Curragh (yielding); bought by Wathnan Racing and moved to Hamad Al Jehani's yard since; leading contender on form and should have even more to offer. |
5/4 |

2nd 6 (6) |
30th Jun 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y |
9st 5lb |
65,000gns breeze-up buy; half-brother to 6.5f/7f winner Chorlton Lane (including 2yo; RPR 108); created quite an impression on York (good-to-soft) debut 16 days ago, making all and totally in command inside final furlong having travelled strongly; supplementary entry an interesting contender. |

22nd Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Carries top weight but has strong claims nevertheless having won the Group 3 Marble Hill Stakes at the Curragh (6f, good) in May and finished third of five in the Group 1 Phoenix Stakes there (6f, good to firm) latest. |

First three runs came here, notably Marble Hill win over this trip; took another step forward when third of 13 in Group 2 Norfolk Stakes at Ascot, having raced alone on near side and keeping on well over shorter trip; major player. |

9st 5lb |
Brother to last year's top-class sprinting juvenile Blackbeard; no match for a smart sort on Navan debut last month before landing odds in C&D conditions event under a positive ride when beating subsequent Queen Mary second Mighty Eriu, still green; looks the type to improve further and fitted with cheekpieces here; Ballydoyle pick and a big player if handling softer conditions. |

7th Sep 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Second to smart rival on debut, then went one better at Goodwood; bounced back from a below-par effort in Ireland when fourth in Newbury Listed contest (again over 6f) last time; frame possibilities. |
6/1 |
|
4th 5 (9) |
19th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Runner-up to subsequent Group 2 winner Ancient Truth on debut at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) in May then won readily at Goodwood (6f, good); disappointing 4-1 shot in Group 2 Railway Stakes at the Curragh (6f, yielding) 19 days ago but he was upset in the stalls and retains potential, especially given how well the Goodwood form has worked out. |
2/1 |
|
5th 3 (1) |
30th Jun 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Half-brother to decent 3yo miler Bright Stripes made promising debut in Newmarket novice last month before landing odds in similar Goodwood contest, showing a bright turn of foot to win readily (third and fourth have won since); upped in grade but every chance he could be up to it; softer ground an unknown. |
