10th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Comes back fresh after ten-week break and may tap back into earlier progress that featured a C&D Listed success and good second in the Irish 2,000 Guineas; warrants respect. |

1st Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Followed 7f Newmarket Listed win (good) in May with a second to Field Of Gold in the Irish 2,000 Guineas (1m, good); travelled notably strongly for a long way back at 7f for the Group 1 Prix Jean Prat at Deauville last month but folded tamely, possibly due to the soft ground; the one to beat on his best form but could possibly have done without Thursday's rain. |

9st 2lb |
One of three for Juddmonte; three wins from three, having recorded impressive wins in 7f novice events at Sandown (good) and Kempton (AW); looked a potentially high-class performer when overcoming quirkiness to win 7f Listed at Newmarket (good) on latest; both the third and sixth have won Listed-class races since; contender. |

18th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
130,000euros breeze-up 2yo; got behind early at Chelmsford (7f AW; 5-1) but finished with some purpose to give the odds-on favourite a fright and that winner was last weekend's Group 2 Champagne Stakes hero Bay City Roller; hard to beat unless any of the newcomers are above average. |

21st Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Came up well short in two valuable conditions stakes races on AW (having won a maiden) but the London Gold Cup at Newbury (1m2f, good to firm) five weeks ago was a step forward, rather outpaced by the winner 2f out but keeping on well to go down by under 2l; up 2lb but more to offer. |

3rd 5 (8) |
17th May 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Showed promise over 7f in sole turf run (debut); ties in with Saddadd on penultimate AW effort (1m) but that rival has less to prove in this scenario; pedigree suggests he's not guaranteed to improve for this new trip on handicap debut. |

11th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 23y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Showed some promise in qualifying runs at up to 1m2f; has yet to distinguish himself in handicaps but the ground was soft in his one attempt at this level on turf and perhaps he'll do better back on good ground. |
20/1 |

7th 7 (1) |
12th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Steady progress in three novice/maiden runs but he has finished down the field in three handicap runs; eased 6lb but hopes appear to rest on the drop back to 1m giving him a lift. |
10/1 |

9th 8 (2) |
18th Feb 2026 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Five-race maiden who has finished midfield in two 1m2f handicaps; should be sharper with last month's reappearance behind him but improvement is required for the new, longer trip. |

29th Aug 2025 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Gosden 3yo who has shown improvement since switched to handicaps, winning at Yarmouth then good third over C&D; subsequently gelded; may do better still; one for the shortlist. |
7/2 |

5th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Clearly underestimated by the handicapper when showing a willing attitude at Yarmouth (1m2f, good to firm) in late April; he's in a lot deeper here and off a 7lb higher mark, so has to step up again; that's perfectly feasible, however. |

14th Nov 2024 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |

Achieved little over 7f and 1m but she's one of a number in this line up who should do better now handicapping. |

30th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
One of his better efforts at Yarmouth one month ago, when going beyond 1m for the first time, but was probably flattered in a muddling, small-field affair; will want to settle better upped in distance again. |
16/1 |

4th 7 (2) |
30th Apr 2026 Good 1m 1f 21y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
11-race maiden, never always finishing towards rear; tried cheekpieces on latest start; now it's a step up in trip. |

4th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |

Unplaced in ten starts and well beaten twice since a break; cheekpieces go on; others preferred. |
