6th 7 (6) |
28th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 50y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
He hasn't kicked on since beating Epic Poet to win the Group 3 Geoffrey Freer at Newbury (1m5f, good to firm) last August and failed to threaten when fourth in the Yorkshire Cup at York three weeks ago; however, he could improve for that first outing since finishing mid-division in the Melbourne Cup (gelded between those starts); this 4yo remains one to be interested in. |
4/1 |
|
4th 5 (4) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 5f 188y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Best form winning the Group 3 Geoffrey Freer at Newbury (1m5f, good to firm) last August in good style from Epic Poet; creditable sixth in the St Leger at Doncaster (14.5f) and not disgraced when mid-division for the 2m Melbourne Cup in November when last seen; gelded since; could resume his progress and that would bring him back into serious contention. |
11/2 |

13th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 6f 115y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
All this season's races have been on good or firmer; second in the 1m6f Group 2 Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot, on the heels of Carmers; flopped behind Scandinavia at Newmarket three weeks later but resumed his improvement to win the Group 3 Geoffrey Freer at Newbury (13.2f) four weeks ago, coming from almost last to first in a steadily run, six-runner race to score by 3l; better still is required but that win was delivered in good style. |

25th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Encouraging second to a subsequent Group winner on his debut in a Newbury maiden (1m3f, good) last April; off since and has been gelded; must be taken seriously. |

took keen hold, in touch with leaders, bit short of room when headway over 3f out, went second inside final furlong, no match for winner, promising |

16th Jan 2026 Standard 2m 0f 0y |
9st 3lb |
One of two for trainer; some decent runs in defeat when trained in Britain and off the mark immediately on Irish debut in a Roscommon maiden over 1m4f in August; built on a decent stable debut here in November when cosily winning a C&D handicap last time off 86; race conditions suit and is a leading contender. |
6/4 |

23rd Sep 2025 Heavy 1m 6f 55y |
9st 10lb |
Some decent runs in defeat when trained in UK; got off the mark on debut for this yard when winning a 1m4f Roscommon maiden; the third that day has since won a maiden; handled soft on debut and is one to consider. |

24th May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Well beaten on both Flat starts for this stable in the autumn and showed nothing more than minor promise in three maiden hurdles this spring; may fair better now handicapping but others have more obvious claims. |
12/1 |
|
5th 8 |
5th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 53y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Hasn't progressed from a good 2yo effort and he holds weak claims on Flat/hurdles form for current yard; however, may be capable of a resurgent display, with this contest being far from strong. |
13/2 |
|
11th 14 |
24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 4 |
10st 10lb |
After showing promise he became disappointing during his short Flat career, and he was beaten 19l when fourth of six on his recent hurdle debut at Fakenham (2m, good); however, that was his first run since last November and it's possible he'll get closer to the target today. |

17th May 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Hinted at promise on last month's debut at Newbury (1m3f, good) and won easily at Salisbury (1m4f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; from a classy family and should continue to progress; leading claims under 6lb penalty. |

4th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Dam a 1m4f winner (RPR 92) and closely related to 1m2f-2m4f Group 1 winner Fame And Glory; held up in last at Newbury (1m3f, good; 6-1) but was picking up nicely late on and looks a surefire improver. |

20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Kept on well to hang on to her lead when making handicap debut at Windsor (extended 1m3f) last May; has run some sound races since, including on Tapeta (1m6f) in October, and perhaps just needed the run at Kempton (1m3f) 12 days ago; shouldn't be far away. |
9/2 |

6th 5 (5) |
8th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Made a successful handicap debut at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) in May last year and ran her best race since when second of six at Wolverhampton (1m6f, Tapeta) in October; not quite sure how she will cope with the drop in trip after six months off. |
5/1 |

11th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 5f 219y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Progressed well at up to 1m4f during the summer but backward steps the last twice and has questions to answer regards the trip and surface. |

9th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 211y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Came up well short at Group level last summer but resumed his progression back in calmer waters with a 1m4f Newbury handicap debut success (good to firm) last August; this low-mileage sort has the potential for better again in 2026. |
9/1 |

16th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
First three runs were in maidens and he made all at Chester (1m4f, good) in May; the Derby proved far too tough for him next time and so did 1m6f Group 2 at Royal Ascot 11 days later; his sights are lowered dramatically for this handicap debut and he needs a close look. |
4/1 |

12th 1 (1) |
18th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 6f 34y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
First three runs were in maidens and he made all at Chester (1m4f, good); the Derby proved far too tough for him only 11 days ago and he was so comprehensively out of his comfort zone that this race too looks hard. |
