1st 6 (7) |
26th Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Beat only two rivals in a 1m1f fast-ground handicap at Lingfield but coped well with the 4lb rise to finish close up at Ascot (1m2f, good to firm); firmly enters the reckoning. |
5/1 |

4 (5) |
11th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 212y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Lightly raced 3yo won a 1m2f Newbury maiden and doubled his tally in a three-runner 1m1f fast-ground handicap at Lingfield 13 days ago; only 4lb higher and quite fair to factor in further improvement going forwards. |
6/1 |

3 (2) |
28th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won by a head in Newbury maiden (1m2f, good) in May; ran creditably on handicap debut at Epsom (1m2f, good to soft) next time but soundly beaten when 16-1 at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) on latest; against Hot Dancer, this one probably needs overall improvement. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Improved upon his first two runs when going close for the Gosdens in Newbury maiden (1m2f, good) last May; gelded subsequently and sold for 95,000gns last October; this well-bred 4yo is a very interesting recruit for Jim Goldie but he makes his handicap/stable debut in a hot race following a year off, and it's hard to know what to expect. |

2nd 1 (6) |
16th May 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Brother to 1m2f Listed winner Al Asifah; weakened out of serious contention in both the Wood Ditton at Newmarket (1m, good; behind two of these) and novice at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW; 6-4 favourite, neck ahead of the promising Respond) 15 days later; still showed fair form but a fair bit better will be required to win this. |

15th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
0-10 but he's been runner-up on his last three starts, most recently when bumping into a subsequent winner over this C&D 28 days ago; solid claims with the cheekpieces retained. |

21st Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 23y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Handy sort who is 0-7, but after a few disappointing efforts he bounced back when fourth of 13 at Kempton (1m3f, AW) last month (winner has gone in again since); could go well. |

First foal; dam tailed off in a bumper and half-sister to winners Grand Canyon (1m1f/1m2f Flat and 2m hurdle) and Alquimia (7f/1m); wouldn't be the obvious answer to a race of this nature; stablemate Serenity Blue is far more appealing on paper. |

9th Jul 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
450,000gns purchase, by Frankel and closely related to Arc winner Waldgeist; kept on for close fifth in Newbury maiden (1m2f; started favourite) in May and should build on that effort; respected. |

|
5th 4 (9) |
16th May 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |

450,000gns yearling by Frankel; eighth foal; closely related to three winners including Waldgeist (1m-1m4f including Arc; RPR 128) and Waldlied (1m4f Group 2; 112), half-brother to three more including Waldkonig (8.6f-1m2f including Group 3; 116); dam 1m 2yo/10.5f Group 3 winner (106); late foal who has an Irish Derby entry; newcomer to note from stable which runs two. |

8th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
In good form on the AW since returning in February, easily justifying short odds at Chelmsford (1m2f) in March; no problem with the return to turf having won over this trip at Haydock (good) last August; can take a hold, but may settle better in this big field and he remains unexposed; a player. |
7/4 |
|
3rd 7 (10) |
28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Solid efforts in defeat in his first three handicaps, before taking his form to another level when winning a six-runner race at Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack) 16 days ago; he was 1-2 that day, made most and won in good style; 8lb higher and not nearly so well drawn but this could still be a good mark. |
3/1 |
|
1st 2 (2) |
12th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Lightly raced 4yo; two solid handicap efforts last autumn followed his Haydock maiden win in August (1m2f, good); strong favourite for his reappearance at Lingfield 19 days ago (1m4f) but he raced too freely early on and was picked off by a finisher; still has time to do better and he is a strong contender with Oisin Murphy back on board. |

17th May 2026 Good 1m 5f 16y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Made debut last May and all six runs were on good ground; maiden winner here who was increasingly competitive coming from behind in his three handicaps, winning in first-time cheekpieces from Ride The Thunder at Haydock (1m6f) in September when last seen; up 7lb, back slightly in trip and no headgear, but he's still one to note. |
7/4 |
|
9 (9) |
6th Sep 2025 Good 1m 6f 1y Class 2 |
8st 5lb |
Made debut in May and all five runs have been on good ground; close third on handicap debut over C&D in July (Pole Star won) and clear second at Sandown (1m6f) last time when failing to reel in the clear leader; there's a suspicion we've yet to see the best of him and his trainer has won two of the last five runnings; could have a major part to play in first-time cheekpieces. |
3/1 |
|
1 (4) |
30th Jul 2025 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Unexposed gelding who comfortably justified long-odds-on favouritism in a Hamilton maiden last month; held in third on handicap debut at Haydock (1m6f, good), but he stayed on strongly and that form was boosted when the winner followed up in a Racing League event; looks interesting off only 1lb higher than last time and he's open to more progress on this drop back in grade. |

18th Oct 2025 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Has hindered himself by taking a good hold in a couple of 2m events since handicapping; chance depends on whether he settles better. |
10/1 |
|
7th 8 (5) |
18th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 5 |
8st 8lb |
Beaten a long way in three qualifying runs over 1m2f/1m4f in May/June, including 22l last of three at Salisbury on the final one; has had wind surgery ahead of this handicap debut after a 100-day break; not bred to be a stayer but is a half-brother to some useful sorts and needs a betting check in a race where nothing arrives with compelling claims. |
7/1 |
|
1 (2) |
10th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 4f 5y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Hooded for both starts to date but he still pulled hard when said to have become unbalanced early at Newbury last month; there must be a good chance he over-races again, in a small field upped in trip, and he's up against it even if settling better. |

12th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |

28-1, green and faded when beaten 22l in maiden at Newbury (1m2f, good) 27 days ago; should improve but he's probably one for further down the line. |

8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Fair form in three of his four starts (April-June) but sported a visor then blinkers on last two occasions and now it's cheekpieces, having also been gelded; signs of some concern there from connections but he's a lightly raced handicap newcomer who probably stays 1m2f, which he's bred for. |
10/1 |
|
5th 3 (11) |
12th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Two promising efforts from his three runs this spring, including a fifth of 15 in the Wood Ditton (1m, good) in April and a third of five behind some useful rivals at Yarmouth (11.4f, good to soft) two weeks ago; looks open to more progress on this drop back in trip and he's in the mix with blinkers added. |
13/2 |
|
2 (4) |
29th May 2025 Good 1m 3f 104y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Positives to take out of his never-dangerous fifth in the Wood Ditton (1m, good) but he ran miserably at Newbury (1m2f, good) and now goes in headgear; Marnier is probably the yard's main hope here. |
8/1 |
