9th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 1 |
9st 10lb |
Group 1 Lockinge winner in 2024 but on a 12-race losing sequence and he ran badly on his last three starts in Dubai early this year; this is a drop in grade but he's proving increasingly hard to predict. |

10th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Not disgraced in similar event at Doncaster last time but continues below his peak form, namely wins in the Lockinge and Lennox last term; still needs to raise his game. |

9st 6lb |
Smart over 7f/1m on his day; runner-up in this contest in 2023 and won the Lockinge and the Lennox last year; not in the same form since and the switch to blinkers (retained) had no effect last time; the need for a revival continues. |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 2y Class 1 |
10st 1lb |
Usually races up with pace; fine sprinter over the years but the majority of his big wins have come at the Curragh, where he's won five Group races; well beaten over this C&D when last seen in November and, although he'd be dangerous on a going day, others seem more likely to give their running. |
20/1 |

18th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Sprang a 40-1 surprise in this race in 2023 and showed he's still capable of smart form when winning the Group 3 Renaissance Stakes at the Curragh (6f, soft) three weeks ago; however, he's some way down the pecking order on this year's form and others appeal more. |

28th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 0m 6f 0y |

A regular visitor to these parts and has won here four times, including this race in 2021 and 2022; ran a blinder in the Phoenix Sprint Stakes over C&D on his seasonal reappearance last month; below best in Flying Five two weeks ago; could rebound stepped back up in trip. |

29th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
8yo who is a two-time Group 1 winner and has an excellent record in this race, with form figures of 1213; reappeared with head second to Ten Bob Tony in Group 3 John Of Gaunt Stakes at Haydock (7f, good) two months ago when carrying a 5lb penalty; no penalty today and he has leading claims. |

31st May 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 37y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Won Group 2 Park Stakes at Doncaster (7f, good) last September and runner-up in Group 1 Prix de la Foret at Longchamp (7f, very soft) next time; carries 5lb penalty and may improve for this reappearance outing but he's a class act who is entitled to respect; won this in 2021 and close third in 2022. |

29th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Highly tried after his impressive win at 2024 Royal Ascot (7f, good to firm) but has mainly been disappointing; second of six at Hamilton (1m) 12 days ago was clearly his best show this season but he needs to build on that today over a new trip. |

17th Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 68y Class 2 |
9st 13lb |
Highly tried after his impressive win in last year's Buckingham Palace at Royal Ascot (7f, good to firm), but has mainly been disappointing and only beat two home in the same race four weeks ago; rain not a problem but still has enough to prove; cheekpieces removed after one use. |
7/1 |

19th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Well ahead of his mark last June when taking this race to pieces but he never went on from that and has been slow to come to hand this year; first-time cheekpieces could hurry him up and he's only 1lb higher than last year so has a big weights chance. |

14th Sep 2024 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
8yo who ran creditably in the frame in 7f Group 3s at Haydock and Newmarket in June but was below par when fifth (2l behind Kinross) in the Lennox at Goodwood last time; fully exposed and would be a surprise winner. |
25/1 |

5th 6 (3) |
30th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Front-runner who was a short head behind Kinross when third in this race two years ago; his enthusiasm appears to remain intact at the age of eight, but his losing run is up to 12 and he finished just over 2l behind Noble Dynasty when fourth of five in a Group 3 on the Newmarket July Course last month; unlikely to gain an uncontested lead here and has a bit to find in any case. |

9st 10lb |
Won Group 3 John of Gaunt over C&D last June and returned to form to land Group 2 Hungerford at Newbury (7f, good to firm; Kikkuli fourth) two months later; probably unsuited by very testing ground when well held in French Group 1 final start; escapes a penalty for those Group wins but he's taken a couple of runs to find his best form in the last two seasons. |

All three wins have come at 1m; back after a spell in the Emirates; not far off best when touched off by Elnajmm in the 7f Group 2 Al Fahidi Fort in January; beaten 3l in fourth behind the same horse in a Group 3 last time; blinkered first time now; not appealing at this trip. |

13th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y |
9st 10lb |
Career-best when winning C&D Listed Amethyst Stakes in May (good), coming from well off pace; similar tactics employed in Group Desmond Stakes over C&D last month but left with too much to do when strong-finishing 1l third to front-running Johan; likely stronger pace here should suit but this looks a deeper race. |

2024 form featured a 1m Naas handicap win and third in the 7f Group 3 Jersey Stakes; found 6f inadequate at Cork on seasonal debut; much more at home when winning a Listed race over C&D in May; has a bit to find with Mutasarref and Lord Massusus on running in a 7f Group 2 event at the Curragh last month. |

30th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Lightly raced for his age and has a 7-13 strike-rate; conceded 15lb to English Oak when making all to beat him by 2l in a handicap on the Rowley Mile at Newmarket (7f, good) in May, and showed he didn't have to lead when landing a Group 3 on the July Course there (7f, good to firm) last month; still seems to be improving at the age of six and is not opposed lightly. |

29th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Lightly raced 6yo who took his record to six wins from 12 starts when displaying improved form to make all in a handicap on the Rowley course here (7f, good) eight weeks ago; while he enjoyed the run of that race he did record an RPR which would have been good enough to win three of the last six runnings of this. |
