31st May 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 3 |
9st 3lb |
Possibly not entirely straightforward (has hung) but this Frankel gelding has plenty of ability, building on a 1m AW novice win in November when second on his 1m2f Ascot handicap debut (good to firm) three weeks ago; probably more to come. |

8st 13lb |
450,000gns Frankel yearling; seemingly well below market expectations on first two starts, inclined to pull hard and hang right at Newmarket on second occasion; favourite nevertheless for novice at Lingfield (1m, AW) in November and he helped set the pace before keeping on to win by a head; gelded since; pedigree suggests he will stay; could still prove capable of better. |

9st 1lb |
Mixed form in three qualifying runs but he went very close over C&D on debut and his fifth at Kempton (1m2f) last month was a respectable effort behind some useful prospects; this is more realistic on handicap debut and he needs a close look back in trip; tongue-tie added. |

9st 8lb |
Placed on AW in first two starts and was beaten less than 3l when a respectable sixth in Newbury maiden (1m, good) last month; out of a half-sister to 1m2f Listed winner in France and he needs a close look now upped in trip on handicap debut. |

12th Apr 2025 Good 1m 0f 7y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Similar sort of form in two 1m races on the AW, the debut for Ollie Sangster; the RPRs he produced hint at limitations in a maiden of this nature and perhaps one for handicaps. |

27th Dec 2024 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |

150,000euros breeze-up purchase who badly needed his debut experience and improved markedly when fourth of ten at Lingfield (1m, AW) six weeks ago; type to progress further and high on the list. |

150,000euros breeze-up purchase who badly needed his debut Kempton experience in September when coming home nicely over 7f, albeit some way off the winner; will have learned plenty from that. |

9st 9lb |
Has an Irish Oaks entry; stamina in the family and has got better as she has stepped up in distance, getting off the mark in 1m4f Southwell maiden six weeks ago, winning going away from Wednesday's Cheshire Oaks third Caspi Star; almost certainly capable of better again on handicap and turf debut for a leading yard no stranger to success in this race. |

Son of Showcasing was brought along steadily at 2yrs, not enjoying the smoothest of passages when sixth of ten in 1m AW Lingfield novice in November; since gelded/had wind op and one to consider now going handicapping up in trip. |

15th Mar 2025 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 5 |

Improving colt who built on earlier promise to convincingly land 1m4f Wolverhampton handicap 19 days ago from Ray Gun; hiked up 6lb but he has a fair bit more to offer; big shout. |

24th Feb 2025 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Made a promising start in handicap company when second of nine at Kempton (1m4f) last month, finishing strongly; he hails from a family chock full of winners and can go very well off an unchanged mark. |

9st 7lb |
400,000euros yearling who was drawn rather away from the action on his 7f Newmarket debut 12 days ago; that run was probably better than it looked and he's considered now upped in trip (stamina on the dam's side). |

Tailed off at big prices in his three runs at up to 1m2f and latest was at this track last month; still early days but he needs lots of improvement on handicap debut; cheekpieces added. |
