6th 2 (2) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 5f 188y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Seven races and improved with each one; raised to Group 1 last autumn for his only defeats, when second in the 1m6f Irish St Leger and fourth in the 1m4f Breeders' Cup Turf; one of the top two on form and should have a big shout. |
6/4 |
|
2nd 9 (3) |
14th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 1m 6f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Sole 3yo runner and a smart one at that, unbeaten in five career starts, notably this year twice at Goodwood and when showing good attitude to hold off subsequent Group 3 winner Zahrann in 1m4f Group 2 King Edward VII Stakes at Royal Ascot; has had a break since and unknown territory here in terms of trip and ground. |
7/2 |

1st 1 (6) |
20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
2-2 last year (7f/1m, AW) and remains unbeaten following two commanding wins at Goodwood (1m/1m3f; good, good to firm in places) last month, the latest a Listed race; he needed a mid-race reminder last time and may not be straightforward, but found plenty in the straight and holds leading form claims. |

20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Second of three in Group 1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud last October (1m2f, heavy) and respectable seventh of 18 in the Derby 13 days ago (1m4f, good); back down in grade today but his eight starts have yielded just one win, in a maiden at Yarmouth, and he's probably vulnerable once more. |
14/1 |
|
4 (8) |
7th Jun 2025 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Dam won five Group races at up to 1m4f and was touched off in the Irish Oaks; six 2yo runs yielded one win at 1m1f before seconds in Group races over 1m2f at Newmarket (good to soft) and Saint-Cloud (heavy); this new trip should suit but he dropped right out at Newmarket (1m1f) in April. |

4th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Both wins for Ismail Mohammed came on the AW last autumn, including one over C&D; makes his stable debut after three months off having been picked up for 25,000gns in February; usual visor now missing; market useful. |
10/1 |
|
5th 3 (12) |
4th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Won over C&D and at Southwell (1m4f) in the autumn; only fourth of seven at Chelmsford (1m5f) last month but that trip is on the outer limits of his stamina and he still looks feasibly treated; dangerous back at 1m3f. |

8th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Made it sixth-time lucky over C&D in July and appreciated the return to the AW when fourth of 11 at Southwell (1m, Tapeta) last month with three of these behind (winner has gone in again since); leading player. |
3/1 |
|
6 (9) |
4th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Posted an improved effort when winning at Kempton (1m, AW) in July but he wasn't in the same form at Ffos Las (1m, good) last month following a 6lb rise; return to AW may help. |
9/1 |
|
3 (6) |
5th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Showed improved form when a well-backed winner from 13 rivals at Kempton (1m, AW) four weeks ago; had nearly 2l to spare and a 6lb rise may not stop him if the return to turf isn't an issue. |

1st Jun 2026 Good 1m 4f 40y |
9st 7lb |
Ground-versatile sort won a Ballinrobe maiden (9.5f, good) and a Listowel handicap (8.5f, heavy) last season off 1lb lower; modest effort on seasonal return at Ballinrobe (9.5f, gd-yld) but sharper for that and can't be discounted with yard in form. |

8th May 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 1f 133y |

Won C&D maiden on this card last year on debut for the Cromwell yard and later added Listowel win on heavy; goes well fresh so has to be respected given his record here. |
7/2 |

4th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y |
9st 7lb |
3yo has won twice this season, including on latest at Listowel (8.5f, heavy) off 4lb lower (Quatre Bras 0.75l behind); ground conditions fine and should go well again if proving as effective on this track. |

9st 8lb |
Improved for the step up to 1m2f when winning final 2yo start on AW (first-time cheekpieces); modest Tapeta form this year, however, and this will be his first turf run since soundly beaten on debut; now visored. |

Won three times on the Lingfield Polytrack (7f/1m) during the winter and just 1lb higher than for the latest, but not at his best lately; others more solid. |

20th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |

Three wins at Lingfield (7f-1m) over the winter; his form has cooled more recently and he returns to turf (well held in one attempt) with a point to prove; can blow the start. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three third-placed finishes on quick turf (1m) and AW (9.5f) last term but finished the year tamely and wind surgery didn't improve matters in two starts last month; tongue-tie added. |
8/1 |

7th 3 (6) |
30th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |

Maiden (0-11); twice placed on AW, including when third to Serious Look at Wolverhampton (9.4f; 10-1) last October; less effective since - eased 5lb in the weights - but could draw benefit from his Yarmouth comeback run (first outing since wind surgery). |

11th 3 (13) |
11th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 3y Class 6 |

9st 9lb |
Reliable and progressive since sent into handicaps, including for a Hamilton win (1m4f, good) on penultimate start and close third at Sandown (1m6f, good) on latest; the latter was behind a Prescott-trained improver and the problem is that he faces another of those today. |

13th Jun 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |

28th May 2025 Good 1m 4f 15y Class 5 |

Two fair runs in 1m4f AW handicaps; likely needs more for the return to turf and longer trips might be his destiny as dam was a 1m6f Listed winner who finished third in the 2m4f Ascot Stakes, and whose winning offspring include a 2m winner; still not ruled out for yard that won this in 2024. |
