19th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Listed runner-up at Kempton in April but he was a pacemaker for stablemate Ombudsman in the Prince of Wales's Stakes at Royal Ascot last time, when well beaten at 66-1, and that's set to be his role again. |

8th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Dual Wolverhampton AW winner (8.5f/1m4f) for Michael Bell, a hurdles winner in October and back on the Flat with three good runs this year, when facing a very stiff task in Listed race on latest; unraced beyond that 1m6f on Flat but she's half-sister to a staying celebrity in Big Orange, which heightens interest. |
15/2 |

3rd 5 (2) |
4th Apr 2026 Good 1m 5f 216y Class 1 |
8st 11lb |
Dual Wolverhampton AW winner (8.5f/1m4f) for Michael Bell, a hurdles winner in October and back on the Flat with two good AW runs (1m2f/1m3f handicaps) this year; has a bit more to prove as turf performer on the Flat and also over this new trip, with a big step forward required at this level. |
33/1 |
|
2nd 1 (5) |
4th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Dual Wolverhampton winner (8.5f/1m4f) for Michael Bell and won over hurdles at Ludlow (2m, good to firm) in October on her second start for this yard; caught the eye with a strong-finishing sixth of 12 at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) 22 days ago and will be suited by this extra furlong. |

7th 7 (12) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Seriously progressive this season in 1m handicaps, including a near miss in the Lincoln (good to soft; won on soft) and victory in the Royal Hunt Cup at Royal Ascot (good to firm); dispelled any doubts about his Group-race credentials when emerging from last in a steadily run race to push Lake Forest to a neck in the 7f Lennox at Glorious Goodwood (good); that effort deserves an upgrade, so he's in the mix. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 6 (8) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Progressive handicapper who landed the Hunt Cup from favourable draw at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) most recently; faces a stiffer task on these terms but possibly hasn't reached his ceiling yet and a strike-rate of 5-6 over 7f bodes well. |
10/1 |
|
1st 28 (33) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Failed to fire in French Listed race last time; broadly progressive in handicaps and went close in the Lincoln when bidding for a five-timer (ran creditably in Spring Cup next time); however, chance partly depends on the weather, as he's ideally suited by ground softer than good. |

20th Jan 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
She has improved her RPR with each of her three starts, most recently when third of 13 over C&D last month; that form up there with the best on offer and not yet exposed. |

18th Dec 2024 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
In need of the experience at Chelmsford on debut (1m2f) in October, but she showed more when third of eight at Lingfield two weeks ago (1m); should stay this far and she's capable of better. |

15th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
8st 12lb |
Unplaced all seven starts, finishing just under 2l behind Warrior King when fifth of nine over C&D last month; more needed. |
12/1 |
|
5th 6 (4) |
18th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
From a good yard but has struggled in three turf handicaps; did hint at promise in his qualifying runs on AW and needs the return to Polytrack to give him something extra. |
9/1 |
|
12th 9 |
29th Aug 2025 Good 1m 6f 44y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Switched to turf for his two handicaps and wasn't that threatening at Haydock (1m3f, good to firm) and Sandown (1m6f, good); still early days. |
