28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Won in summer 2024 on first two starts; 0-4 since but he was inconvenienced by a wide draw when sixth of 14 in handicap at Meydan in January (1m, good) when last seen; could yet be capable of better for top trainer who won this with 4yos in 2016 and 2019; Toby Moore removes 7lb. |

17th Apr 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Winner of novices at Newbury (6.5f, good to firm) and Sandown (7f, good) on first two starts; beaten 7l when stepped up to 1m for the Group 1 Futurity at Doncaster (soft) in the autumn but still posted an improved RPR and it's likely he can do better again in 2025; big player back at 7f. |

31st Jul 2025 Good 1m 3f 218y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Pacemaker for Field Of Gold in two Group 1 races this season; took advantage of drop back in class for Listed event at Sandown (1m2f, good to firm) last time, prevailing narrowly in a sustained battle with the runner-up who made the running; still unexposed beyond 1m and may rate higher still. |
7/1 |

4th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 1 |
8st 13lb |
Progressive last term and ran creditably when favourite for the Classic Trial over C&D on reappearance; comfortably held in Group 1 races won by Field Of Gold since; faces a much easier task back down sharply in class and taking on his elders; respected. |
9/4 |

17th Jun 2025 Good 0m 7f 213y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Two minor honours in Group races, including second at Sandown (1m2f) on seasonal debut; however, dropped away in the closing stages of the Irish 2,000 Guineas and ended up behind three of today's rivals; the cheekpieces worn that day are retained; needs major improvement. |

8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Gained most recent success in AW Vase race on Good Friday; has steadily got back into the swing of turf racing and went very close at Thirsk (7f) last Saturday, running at least as well as he's ever done; the signs are positive. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 5 (13) |
1st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Won at Lingfield (1m, AW) in April and achieved his best result of this turf season when close fourth of 17 at York (7f, good to firm) three weeks ago; he might not be far away. |
11/2 |

4th 6 (2) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Won a 1m handicap at Lingfield on Good Friday off this mark; another solid effort when a close sixth at Newmarket (1m, good) three weeks ago; more needed to come out on top here. |

20th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Two quick runs at Glorious Goodwood three weeks ago, beaten only 2l when fifth of 20 on the Wednesday (7f, good to firm) then seventh of 18 in the Golden Mile on the Friday (good to firm) when he would have been closer with a clear run; it's possible he'll be involved; unproven on slow ground. |
12/1 |

7th 18 (7) |
31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Ran encouragingly in a couple of races won by English Oak during his spell in Meydan and wasn't disgraced at Goodwood (7f) on Wednesday; however, still has a poor strike-rate as it's two years since his sole success; steps back up in trip/class. |
25/1 |
|
5th 9 (8) |
29th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Just one novice stakes win for Hugo Palmer but recorded plenty of good efforts, including when he split two subsequent Group winners in a 1m conditions race here (good) last May; didn't run badly in three of four starts in Meydan for this yard earlier in the year, but his British return from a 111-day break was underwhelming last month; might have needed that and he's not badly treated. |

23rd Oct 2024 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
In top hands and returned to form with fair fifth of eight in first-time blinkers over C&D (soft) recently on second nursery start; however, he needs to raise his game if he's to get off the mark today; a first-time visor replaces the blinkers (has now worn new headgear on each of last three runs). |
8/1 |
|
5th 8 (9) |
12th Oct 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Stablemate of Attack; has failed to build on debut promise but soft ground was a possible excuse last time (wore cheekpieces); chance partly depends on how well he responds to a headgear switch (now wears blinkers). |

19th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
His eight runs have yielded one win, in a 1m2f AW maiden in March; on last two outings he showed he stays 1m4f at York (behind Merchant) and 14.5f at Doncaster (hooded) but he needs to find more and faces a ton of rivals who are far less exposed. |
33/1 |

7th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 6f 115y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
His six runs have yielded one win, in a 1m2f AW maiden in March; improvement is needed but he stayed on well for fourth when upped to 1m4f in a handicap at York (good to firm) last time, and today's extra distance could be right up his street; unraced on slow ground; wears a first-time hood. |
11/2 |
|
4th 3 (3) |
15th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 188y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
1-6 for a Chelmsford maiden (1m2f, AW) on reappearance but had to work to land the odds; last summer's form on turf (three seconds) was better but his return to good ground for handicap debut at Doncaster (1m2f) on latest start proved disappointing, leading until over 1f out; a revival is needed but he should stay if he settles. |

9st 7lb |
Six-race maiden who has yet to be placed; got closer to the target when a respectable fifth in Salisbury nursery (1m; tongue-tie added) last time but he needs to find more at this new trip. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |

Led close home for narrow AW win here in January but that's his only success from 21 starts and he posed no threat on turf at Brighton last month; others have more pressing claims. |

Sole win from 20 starts came off this mark at Lingfield (7f, AW) in January; turf form not so hot; fell at Lingfield last time; others more persuasive. |

26th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 4lb |
Progressive sort who's scored twice this term and ran well again at Windsor (11.5f, good) 18 days ago; steps out of his grade but this trip might unlock more and he's a likeable sort who threatens to give the classier types a proper workout. |

8th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Unraced on softer than good; ran well at Newbury (1m4f) most recently, taking record this season to 3431132; that consistency makes him one to consider. |
13/2 |
|

16th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
8st 4lb |
Progressing and going up in trip has helped; front-running win when 4-6 at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW) in June and he saw off a Prescott-trained hotpot to follow up at Ffos Las (1m4f, good) in July; close third at Chester on latest outing and may still have more to give. |
