12th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Very useful form, mostly over 5f, last season; solid results over 6f this term, winning at Ascot (Group 3) then not disgraced at Haydock (Group 2) or Royal Ascot (Commonwealth Cup); ties in with fellow 3yos Symbol Of Honour and Whistlejacket; may still rate higher and can't be dismissed. |

20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |

Won the Group 3 Molecomb last July (5f, good to firm) and landed the Group 3 Trial over this C&D (good to firm) in April on return; beaten a length and a half in fourth in Group 2 Sandy Lane at Haydock (6f, good) last time, when he would have been slightly closer with a clear run; each-way claims. |

Won the Group 3 Molecomb at Goodwood (5f, good to firm) last July and continued to show strong form; reappeared with half-length win in Group 3 Commonwealth Cup Trial at Ascot (6f, good to firm); unraced on slow ground; he could do with settling better and may need a bigger performance to follow up today, but he got the job done and could still have more to offer; key player. |

Smart sprinting 2yo whose four 5f wins included a Group 3 at Longchamp (good to soft) and Group 2 at Doncaster (good), both from the front; has to put a disappointing reappearance at York (favourite) behind him in this much better race. |

13th Jul 2025 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Has bits of Listed/Group form on turf and ran well in useful conditions race at Chelmsford in sole AW attempt; came up short in Royal Ascot handicap most recently but this is less demanding; possibilities if taking well to first-time headgear. |

20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Well beaten on his 2yo debut (6f, good to soft) but his form took off on faster ground subsequently, winning 5f novices at Redcar and Nottingham before big efforts at Glorious Goodwood and York's Ebor meeting (Group 3/Listed); two solid efforts in defeat this year, hamstrung by a refusal to settle when a close fifth in a York Listed race five weeks ago (5f, good to firm); this test might suit better and a big run wouldn't be a surprise. |
14/1 |

Best 2yo effort came when close third in the Group 3 Molecomb at Goodwood (5f, good to firm; Aesterius second); creditable Listed fourth behind Tropical Storm over this C&D next time; reappeared with good second at Chelmsford (6f, AW) and the return to 5f could be a plus; possible player. |

Three wins as a 2yo, notably the Group 2 Lowther Stakes over C&D last August (good to firm); soft ground perhaps no good to her when fifth of seven in the Cheveley Park Stakes when last seen; dam improved with age and quite possible she'll do even better this time around. |

28th Sep 2024 Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Unraced on soft/heavy ground; useful filly whose record is 3-6; however, although proving game she was a substandard winner of the Lowther (6f Group 2) at York most recently and will need a good chunk of further improvement to follow up. |
12/1 |

22nd Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |

Had the pace to make all in a Listed race at Newmarket (6f, good to firm), beating Tales Of The Heart with a subsequent Group 2 winner in third; another good run when close up in a French Group 2 on good to soft before holding her own against the boys back at 5f in Goodwood's Group 3 Molecomb; brings solid form claims and plenty of experience; respected. |

14th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Highly tried after a winning debut last July (6f, good) when trained by Kevin Ryan; best effort when second of ten in a 5f nursery here (soft) last October; three runs in Dubai for Dylan Cunha early in the year, running creditably on the first occasion before two lesser efforts (stiff task latest); changed hands since and he's in a hot race for his stable debut. |

Fairly useful on turf, albeit with a record of only 1-9 and she was behind some of today's opponents at York on reappearance; good second at Haydock since but this is a step back up in class and the change of surface presents a question mark. |

Easy winner of a Lingfield novice (5f, good) last May; highly tried after that but she struggled in a novice in final 2yo run and was the same story on handicap debut at York (first run after wind surgery) last month; now drops into a Class 4 but has bit to prove and she needs to get back on track. |

Bagged a Chantilly Listed race (5f) on heavy ground in June and a return to testing conditions has seen him recapture that form this autumn, placing three times, including in another French Listed event on Monday; should give his running if over those exertions but looks vulnerable for win purposes under a penalty. |

Won at Newmarket (5f, good) in April 2024 on debut, but beat just one rival in the Coventry at Royal Ascot (6f, good to firm) and none in Group 3 Molecomb at Goodwood (5f, good to firm) that July when last seen; tongue tied last time, hooded as well today and also had wind surgery in February; possible all that may turn him around and this handicap debut is a huge drop in class. |

Always prominent when mastering a host of subsequent winners on his Newmarket debut in April (5f, good) and he did not give his true running in the Coventry at Royal Ascot (6f, good to firm; stopped quickly); remains of interest and the tongue-tie is new. |

Knew his job when making a successful debut over 5f at Newmarket's Craven meeting (good), repelling The Actor by a neck with a very green Al Qudra not far behind; the step up to 6f will suit this half-brother to Wokingham contender The Wizard Of Eye (6f-1m winner) and the stable knows what's required, having captured this race three times during the 1990s. |
