3rd 4 (3) |
26th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Won three of his first four races before a staying-on sixth of 16 in the French 2,000 Guineas (1m, good) preceded a cracking effort when close third of 18 in the French Derby (10.5f, good to soft) in June; that step up in trip looked to suit but he flopped at Royal Ascot and didn't finish it off when only fifth of seven in Haydock Group 3 seven weeks ago; drops back to 1m with a question to answer. |

5th 8 (8) |
9th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 100y Class 1 |
8st 13lb |
Staying-on sixth of 16 in the Poule d'Essai des Poulains (1m, good) in May and suited by the step up in trip when close third of 18 in the Prix du Jockey Club (10.5f, good to soft) in June, both of them French Classic races; the big problem is his flop at Royal Ascot (1m2f Group 3, good to firm) but he's one to take very seriously if that can be forgiven. |

Staying-on sixth of 16 in the Group 1 Poule d'Essai des Poulains (1m, good; unraced on faster) last month and suited by the step up in trip when close third of 18 in the Group 1 Prix du Jockey Club 18 days ago (10.5f, good to soft; Trinity College a head further back in fourth); leading form claims. |

3rd Apr 2025 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Listed runner-up at Salisbury (1m) last August on second start, behind subsequent Grade 1 winner, then won Listed race at Haydock (1m); soft ground and the undulations may not have suited at Newmarket in the Royal Lodge; one of the leading form contenders on his reappearance and AW debut. |

28th Sep 2024 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
250,000gns son of Frankel; unraced on softer than good; won at Salisbury on debut and gave subsequent big-race winner New Century plenty to think about in three-runner, 1m Listed race at same course (1m); registered his own Listed success in eight-runner race at Haydock (1m) three weeks ago, travelling best and asserting in good style once he got in the clear, so he brings good form and plenty of promise. |

Has progressive form over 1m on AW; good third in useful conditions race at Chelmsford most recently, shaping as if this drop in distance is worth exploring; interesting turf debutant. |

3rd Apr 2025 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Posted a win (at Southwell) and a near-miss (over this C&D) from his first two starts; then gelded and won by 5l at 1-4 over C&D in February; this is much tougher but he's a likeable prospect who could hold his own. |

19th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Won twice at two and his defeats came in races won by top-notchers; has also kept good company this season, running well on the AW before failing to fire around Chester in the 1m2f Listed Dee Stakes; while that wasn't the ideal preparation for a Britannia, he'd be no forlorn hope if back on song. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Just one win in his first 18 starts but he doubled his tally when coming from off the pace to score at Carlisle (1m3f, good to firm) two weeks ago; up 3lb but that was a brave win and he shaped as though this trip should be within range; respected. |

Winless since his debut in 2024 and he arrives below par, only sixth in 9.5f Wolverhampton handicap last time; also has his stamina to prove. |

16th Jun 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |

Second in a Group 2 for Hugo Palmer as a 2yo before proving hard to place last year; found his level again but twice turned over at short prices recently (latest third has been boosted since) and has stamina to prove upped from 1m back on the AW. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Progressive 3yo for Andrew Balding in the first half of last year, culminating in a 1m2f handicap win at Royal Ascot (good to firm); sold for 775,000gns the following month but comfortably held in three major 1m2f handicaps on return for new yard this summer; back to only 1lb above the mark he defied at Royal Ascot but a leap of faith is needed. |

28th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Progressive 3yo for Andrew Balding in the first half of last year, culminating in a 1m2f handicap win at Royal Ascot (good to firm); sold for 775,000gns the following month but not seen again until well held in major 1m2f handicaps this summer at Epsom and York; hooded in the latter when getting hampered over 1f out contributed but he did not look like playing a major part at the time; player if surging back to his best. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Progressive 3yo for Andrew Balding in the first half of last year, culminating in a win in the Golden Gates Handicap at Royal Ascot (1m2f, good to firm); changed hands for 775,000gns the following month; failed to settle and shaped as though he needed the run when a nevertheless-respectable sixth on last month's comeback and stable debut at Epsom (1m2f, good to soft); the first-time hood could help and he's an intriguing contender. |
