16th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Gelded before reappearing in May with a Listed win at Haydock (7f, good to firm); however, he needs a bigger performance to take this and three lesser runs have followed in Group races; the last two were in blinkers, which are now joined by a tongue-tie. |

9st 6lb |
Gelded before reappearing in May and winning a Listed race at Haydock (7f, good to firm); however, he needs a bigger performance if he's to take this and two lesser runs have followed in Group 3 races (7f/6f, good/AW); the latest was in first-time blinkers, which are retained. |

28th Jun 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
0-4 over 1m+ last year; dropped in trip and made all in 7f Listed race at Haydock in May but didn't give his running in Group 3 over same C&D three weeks later; now runs in a sprint for the first time since his (winning) debut and also tackles the AW for the first time, so he has a bit to prove, although first-time blinkers could have a positive effect. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Six runs at Ascot have yielded two Group 3 wins (6f) as well as a third in a Group 1 over C&D; back to form with a good third in a competitive AW handicap (6f) two weeks ago; 1lb rise not insurmountable; respected. |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Smart performer on his day; finished second in the Group 3 on this card 12 months ago and ended 2025 with an Ascot win at that level; it has been a mixed back so far in 2026 but he is edging down the weights and has too much ability to discount; accessories tried last month are now dispensed with. |

31st May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Group 3 winner at Ascot (6f, soft) last October and he's versatile ground-wise; down to a dangerous mark but he hasn't been at the top of his game on his four runs this year, in handicaps on the last two occasions, and he needs to turn things around in a first-time tongue-tie and reapplied cheekpieces. |

6th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 11lb |
Won the Group 2 Mill Reef on heavy as a juvenile but missed all of his 3yo campaign and has yet to convince that he's the same force this season, latterly finishing well behind in the International here; however, there's always a chance the first-time visor might trigger something and he'll go on the ground; wouldn't put a line through him. |

26th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Useful 2yo over 6f in 2023, winning the Mill Reef on heavy ground; missed last season but has shown signs of retaining ability, including over 7f, this year; switches to a handicap for the first time and could go well, albeit needs a career-best performance to defy his mark. |

31st May 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 37y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Lightly raced half-brother to Frankel and went very close in the Group 3 Jersey Stakes at Royal Ascot last June (7f, good to firm); could improve for this month's reappearance here (2l fourth of five in Listed race) but others have greater substance to their claims; peak efforts on fast ground. |

9st 10lb |
Looked an exciting prospect when narrowly denied in last year's Jersey at Royal Ascot (7f, good to firm) on just his fourth start; that made his three subsequent defeats (including fourth to Tiber Flow in Hungerford at Newbury) a little underwhelming but no surprise were he to bounce back with a bang on reappearance for a stable in very good form. |

11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Won Group 3 John of Gaunt at Haydock (7f, good) in June 2024 and returned to form to land Group 2 Hungerford at Newbury (7f, good to firm) two months later; has had only two runs since then but latest was a creditable second in a Listed event at Haydock last May; now returns after another lengthy absence but he has a good strike-rate and needs a close look for in-form yard. |

2nd 5 (5) |
10th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 212y Class 1 |
9st 10lb |
Won Group 3 John of Gaunt over C&D last June and returned to form to land Group 2 Hungerford at Newbury (7f, good to firm; Kikkuli fourth) two months later; probably unsuited by very testing ground when well held in French Group 1 final start; escapes a penalty for those Group wins but he's taken a couple of runs to find his best form in the last two seasons. |
