17th Jun 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 1lb |
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. |

Reappears carrying a 5lb penalty but he was a Listed, Group 3 and Group 2 winner last season, and his defeat of Big Mojo and Magnum Force in the Flying Childers reads extremely well; strong claims. |

13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
10st 1lb |
Campaigned mostly on good ground or firmer; drops back in grade for this seasonal debut and even under a 5lb penalty holds a major chance on best Group 1 form last term, namely close second in the July Cup and success in the Sprint Cup (beat Kind Of Blue by just over 1l; both well drawn). |
6/1 |

14 (20) |
18th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
3yo who was beaten a neck by No Half Measures in the July Cup at Newmarket and gained a deserved first success at the top level when holding Kind Of Blue in the Sprint Cup at Haydock six weeks ago; 6f on a sound surface is ideal and he showed his liking for Ascot when winning the Commonwealth Cup Trial in the spring; has plenty in his favour. |

6th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |

Two-time Group 3 winner who was a neck second to No Half Measures in the Group 1 July Cup at Newmarket (6f, good to firm); kept on for 2l fifth in Group 2 King George at Goodwood since when the drop back to 5f looked against this 3yo (good to soft; unraced on softer); each-way claims back up to 6f. |

13th Jun 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y |
9st 7lb |
C&D maiden winner on good-to-firm last August; runner-up in a 5f Listed race at York and third in the Flying Childer; surpassed European form when beat fellow Irish raider Arizona Blaze in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint at Del Mar (5f, firm); reported to have a mouth injury after a dismal Naas run on seasonal debut; good chance to get season back on track. |

18th May 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y |
9st 6lb |
112 rated 3yo Mehmas colt progressed well as a 2yo, culminating with a win in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf at Del Mar (5f, firm); well-treated by the race conditions on his return, fast ground is ideal and while this is likely a stepping stone towards bigger targets later in the season, he is the one they have to beat. |

13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
His best form is at 5f and he hasn't been at the top of his game since a Listed win at this meeting last May; however, he kept on well for third at Goodwood (5f, good) recently, suggesting the return to 6f is worth exploring, and his two career wins have both come here; a visor goes on. |

3rd 7 (3) |
1st May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Bagged 5f York listed event last May; off seven months/gelded before posting an encouraging eighth of 14 in 5f Musselburgh handicap 27 days ago, nearest finish having lost ground when hampered soon after start; not without interest off a reduced mark. |
6/1 |
|
8th 3 (8) |
4th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 1y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
More miss than hit in 2025, winning 5f Listed race at York (good to firm) in May but failing to make the frame otherwise; now returns from a gelding operation on a handy mark and with his stable in form; big chance if he's on a going day. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Made the frame in valuable handicaps at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm) in June and Newmarket (6f, good to firm) in July, but then ran poorly at the Shergar Cup two weeks ago; his record now reads just one win from ten attempts and he has something to prove in a race as competitive as this one. |
28/1 |

9th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
In the frame in notable handicaps at the Royal meeting (5f, good to firm) and Newmarket (6f, good to firm) on his last two starts; 11lb better off with Prince Of India for just over 4l on the latter occasion; no obvious reason why he wouldn't give his running again. |
9/1 |

10th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Ran his best race when keeping on for fourth of 24 in the Palace Of Holyroodhouse at Royal Ascot three weeks ago (5f, good to firm; cheekpieces first time); looked ready for the return to 6f on that occasion but is perhaps vulnerable to a few lurking further down the weights. |

13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 10lb |
Ran well in last year's Nunthorpe in sole York attempt, finishing 100-1 second, but that's very much an outlier in his form; still needs to prove he can repeat it; failed to beat a rival in Newmarket Group 3 contest on reappearance. |
33/1 |
|
14th 2 (8) |
2nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Listed winner at Royal Ascot as a 2yo; out of luck since but he showed what can be done on a good day when chasing home Asfoora in the Group 1 Nunthorpe at York (good to firm; 100-1) last August; no approach to that form since, however, and although Ryan Moore is booked, the absence of cheekpieces raises a query. |
12/1 |
|
12 (1) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
He hasn't added to last season's Windsor Castle win at Royal Ascot but he excelled himself when running on for second in the Group 1 Nunthorpe at York (5f, good to firm) last month; 13lb well in on that effort and a low draw excuses a lesser effort in the Sprint Cup at Haydock two weeks ago; likely to go well but a stiff 6f on rain-softened ground perhaps not optimal. |

25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Can lead; smart 2yo who began 3yo season on a mark of 102; has shown just humdrum form in three turf handicaps, despite a sliding mark, and was way back behind Justcallmepete at Bath last week; has it to prove now. |
10/1 |
|
11th 5 (5) |
17th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 160y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Both wins were on turf in 2024 but he's well treated on old form and has run respectably on Tapeta (5f/6f) in last two starts; can make the running and it wouldn't be a surprise if he made a bold bid back in this sphere. |
6/1 |
|
4th 5 (8) |
2nd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Having tumbled down the weights there were signs of a possible revival when keeping on for third in a 5f handicap at Wolverhampton last week (attracted support); Rossa Ryan retains the ride and today's return to 6f won't be an issue; can't discount. |

Eighth of 24 in a 5f handicap at Royal Ascot last season but he's finished out the back in his subsequent runs; bit risky. |

1st May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Ran quite well when an unconsidered 100-1 shot at Royal Ascot last summer but that didn't prove a springboard to better things; down in the weights but best watched back from a 245-day break. |

Smart as 2yo but she hasn't quite hit those heights in 2025, albeit facing some tough assignments; dropping down the weights and now tried in cheekpieces but others look safer. |

12th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Went close in Group 3 Firth Of Clyde Stakes at Ayr (6f, good to firm) last September; reappeared with fair fifth of 15 in the Group 3 Fred Darling at Newbury (7f, good) in April but has failed to build on that and she needs to raise her game now back up in trip. |
16/1 |

6 (3) |
20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
In the same ownership as Miss Lamai and finished just in front of that rival when third of 24 in last season's Queen Mary; unplaced in three starts this year but looks to retain all her ability, faring better than the result when sixth in a strong Listed race at Cork (5.5f, good) last month; a big run at rewarding odds can't be ruled out in this her first handicap. |

Never gave her running in the Queen Mary and then finished second in a Naas Listed race (5f, yielding); behind three of these when only sixth at York (5f Listed) but was soon on the back foot after starting slowly and ran well all things considered; worn this headgear combination the last twice; no forlorn hope at lengthy odds. |

24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |

One of three Irish challengers; heavy defeat in the Queen Mary is flanked by good performances at Naas, second in Listed grade (5f, yielding) with hood added on latest; could go well in the retained headgear. |

2nd 3 (2) |
24th Jul 2024 Good 0m 5f 0y |

Created a very nice impression when winning a C&D maiden in May; ran too bad to be true in the Queen Mary; headgear tried here and has a question to answer. |
