18th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Some good runs in defeat in Group races this season, the best of them when close second to Fallen Angel in the Matron at Leopardstown (1m, good to yielding) in September; very soft ground may not have suited at Longchamp a fortnight ago but others have a lot more substance to their claims. |

9st 2lb |
Won 7f 2yo Group 3 here last October and started the new season with a 7f Group 3 second here; has come up short in four Group 1 outings since then, including sixth behind Cercene in the Coronation and fifth behind Fallen Angel in the Prix Rothschild. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Won 7f 2yo Group 3 last October and has hinted in two 1m Group 1s in France this season that 7f may be her best trip; Aidan O'Brien's sole representative and worth a second look but others have more substance to their claims. |

19th Sep 2024 Good 0m 5f 205y |
9st 5lb |
Cost 150,000Euros as a yearling; blinkered for debut (retained) and a solid effort over C&D against some useful rivals; looks his powerful yard's second-string on jockey bookings but can go well. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Prevailed at the Curragh in May to break his Group 2 duck; not disgraced in the 6f Group 1 at Royal Ascot since but that seventh-place finish confirms his slight limitations at the top level; will find better opportunities when back down in class. |
20/1 |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
The drop back to 6f proved to be a good move this spring, with a very respectable fifth in a hot Group 1 at Sha Tin in April (good to firm; Satono Reve second) and a 2l win in the Group 2 Greenlands Stakes at the Curragh (6f, good); not fully exposed at the trip and he's one to be interested in. |
12/1 |

1st 5 (2) |
23rd May 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 6f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Useful form at 7m/1m last season, fifth in the Irish 2,000 Guineas, third in the Jersey Stakes, odds-on for 7f Naas win; kept on for third in 7f Group 2 in Saudi Arabia in February; ran as well as could have been expected when fifth of eight behind the spectacular Ka Ying Rising at Sha Tin last month; trip possibly a little sharp for him. |

4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Listed runner-up for Ger Lyons last May (7f, good) but well beaten on final two starts for that yard and same story on last month's stable debut in the Royal Hunt Cup at Royal Ascot; may be best watched for now. |

28th 19 (13) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Formerly trained by Ger Lyons; placed a few times over 6f/7f in Listed grade but posted duck eggs at Royal Ascot 2025 and in valuable Irish handicap in his last two appearances; sold for 80,000gns since; hood fitted; enough to prove on debut for new yard. |
50/1 |

13th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Debut winner last year of Naas maiden but hasn't added to tally in six starts since, standout effort when second in Naas Listed over this trip in May; gelded since finishing last in Group 3 Jersey Stakes in June and not to be dismissed on handicap debut though stiff enough task at the weights. |
