12th Oct 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Cost 1,250,000euros as a yearling; his stable has won the last four renewals of this race and the horse (stablemate of Stanhope Gardens) this colt beat with relative comfort at Haydock (1m, good to soft) won by 8l this week; impressed with the way he picked up from off the pace last time and he's clearly a smart prospect. |

raced in last, niggled along briefly 5f out, went fourth over 3f out, headway on outer 2f out, pushed along to lead 1f out, ridden and went clear inside final furlong, comfortably |

4th Oct 2025 Good 1m 3f 211y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
40-1 fifth of ten in the Irish Derby (1m4f, good) in June, front rank long way; it's a concern that his rating that day is well in advance of his others, and also that he was beaten so far in the storm at Glorious Goodwood on latest outing, but he needs a second look with tongue tied first time. |

31st Jul 2025 Good 1m 3f 218y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Belied his 40-1 odds with an apparently good fifth in the Irish Derby and new rating gives him a leading chance in this field; however, may be flattered by that result; no match for unbeaten stablemate Amiloc in Listed grade at Goodwood (1m3f) the time before; not entirely solid. |

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). |

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). |

26th Sep 2025 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Prominent racer who won in good style here (1m, good) in April on his handicap and seasonal debut; has failed to progress but gelded since last time and the return to the Rowley Mile could give him a boost. |
14/1 |

9th 11 (2) |
22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Showed fairly useful form in the spring, including reappearance win, and last two efforts can be excused; however, still needs to prove he can defy this sort of mark. |
25/1 |

31st Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Made virtually all for a clearcut win on handicap debut at Newmarket (1m, good) in April but hit with 9lb rise for that success and he's been vulnerable in two subsequent runs; reported to have had post-race heat stress at Newmarket last month but this is a deeper race and others are preferred; the hood worn last time is removed. |

19th Oct 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Flat maiden who has shown consistent form in juvenile hurdles, without progressing; may take a step forward in this handicap, getting plenty of weight all round from his elders; interesting. |

3rd 3 |
27th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 3 |
11st 2lb |
Fair Flat racer who finished second on first two hurding starts; no match for easy winner at Stratford (2m, good to firm) last time, though, and has a bit to find with Lord here. |
5/1 |

13th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
Fair on the Flat (albeit a maiden) and travelled strongly for a long way when clear second on recent hurdling debut at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good), where a slow jump at the last flight may have cost him the race; respected. |
100/30 |
