18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Still below best when third at Newcastle (AW debut) last time but that was something of resurgence; progressive spell culminated in wins over C&D (Listed) and at Haydock (Group 2) in May 2025; possibilities provided he returns to that sort of form. |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Useful on turf, recording peak RPR when landing a Group 2 at Haydock (6f, good) last May; not at his best in two runs in Dubai this winter; switch to AW shouldn't be an issue and he has the ability to feature. |
6/1 |

8th 14 (8) |
12th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Stablemate of Notable Speech; suited by good/firmer; has a very impressive record (161111) over 6f, narrowly justifying favouritism in the Sandy Lane Stakes (Group 2) at Haydock most recently; beat Ides Of March at Newbury (Listed) a week earlier; unable to run in the Commonwealth Cup due to being a gelding; major contender, with further improvement plausible kept to this trip and back from a well-earned break (had a busy May). |

28th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 0m 6f 0y |
9st 5lb |
3yo won a Group 3 over C&D last year; started this season promisingly with runner up efforts in listed company at Navan (6f, soft) and Newbury (6f, gd-fm); struggled in the Group 1 Commonwealth Cup and July Stakes and again in the Group 3 Phoenix Sprint Stakes here on latest (slowly away); needs to bounce back. |

Group 3 winner as a 2yo; creditable second in Listed races won by stablemate Whistlejacket and Symbol Of Honour this spring but came up well short in the Commonwealth Cup and still needs to prove he's a Group 1 colt; deserted by Ryan Moore for the third time this year. |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Close fourth in the Commonwealth Cup over C&D (good to firm) 12 months ago and readily won the Group 3 Summer Stakes against fellow fillies at York (6f, good) last July; last month's comeback third to Flora Of Bermuda at Newmarket gives her something to build on but others are more compelling. |
33/1 |

3rd 8 (4) |
2nd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Had excuses (trip/draw) returned to Group 1 level in last two appearances; progressive otherwise and ran well in the Commonwealth Cup prior to Group 3 win at York (6f, good) last summer; may still have more to offer; major contender. |
4/1 |

15 (1) |
6th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Close fourth in Group 1 Commonwealth Cup (6f, good to firm) before stylish win against her own sex in Group 3 Summer Stakes at York (6f, good); outpaced when mid-division in Group 1 Nunthorpe at York (5f, good to firm) a fortnight ago and has something to find at this level, but this 3yo could have more to offer now back up to 6f; not ruled out; unraced on slow ground. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Has made the frame at Newcastle (AW; behind Wiltshire) and Leicester since being gelded; good fourth in the Listed Carnarvon Stakes on this card last year; 0-3 on turf but has each-way claims. |
8/1 |

4th 6 (7) |
25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Completed an AW hat-trick when scoring on his handicap debut at Newcastle (6f) last April; held in six subsequent runs but he went close off this mark at Southwell in November and was a creditable third at Newcastle three weeks ago; now returns to turf but he ran well in a fast-ground Listed event last spring and he's still unexposed in this sphere; in the mix. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 9 (2) |
3rd Apr 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
He was completing a hat-trick when landing the 3yo sprint on this card 12 months ago, a race where he enjoyed a clear run while several in behind met trouble; he hasn't looked ahead of the handicapper in three runs this winter but likely this has been the main target and he has been gelded since his latest run. |

Placed four times in Listed grade but below par in two comeback outings this spring (behind Flora Of Bermuda at Newmarket latterly); off ten weeks; even a return to her best is highly unlikely to be enough. |
50/1 |

7th 3 (7) |
2nd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Novice winner as a 2yo; placed four times in Listed grade, most recently runner-up over C&D (good to firm) on final start in 2025; ran below market expectations at Bath on reappearance but consistent on the whole and may rebound. |
16/1 |

12th 6 (9) |
5th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Promising 2yo; made a fine return to action last May when second of 12 in a Listed event at Chelmsford (6f); placed at this level on a further three occasions, including when last seen in October; should give another good account for a stable that won this in 2010, 2013 and 2017. |

Useful as 2yo sprinter; successful when sights lowered at Yarmouth last September and his third in a 6f Listed race at Doncaster (good to soft) in March was his best form; hard to call him well handicapped now though. |

12th 4 (12) |
25th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 37y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Won a valuable pot as a 2yo; slow to come to hand as a 3yo but he changed yards last summer and made an impressive winning return from a gelding operation last September (6f, good to soft; cheekpieces on for the first time); fine reappearance when third in the Listed Cammidge Trophy at Doncaster (6f, good to soft) four weeks ago; raised 3lb for his troubles and still has to prove his stamina for 7f. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Clear best in the 2025 Jersey at Royal Ascot (7f) but was pulled up (lost action) in only subsequent start last term and has failed to show his form this year; drop back to 6f had no effect last time; enough to prove. |
16/1 |
|
9th 6 (5) |
27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
7f AW win as a 2yo; enjoyed his finest hour when winning the Jersey Stakes at Royal Ascot (7f, good to firm) 12 months ago; only seen twice since, pulling up at Goodwood last July and then finishing a remote last of five in a French Group 3 (soft ground) last month; not solid but he'll be a danger to all if back near that Jersey Stakes form. |
11/1 |
|
12 (5) |
29th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
8st 13lb |
Left his previous form way behind when a commanding winner of the Group 3 Jersey Stakes at Royal Ascot (7f, good to firm); he needs to prove that level of performance was no one-off but the runner-up has since gone well in the July Cup and this 3yo is entitled to respect. |

8st 12lb |
Yet to win for new connections but he has run stormers here (7f/1m, both good ground) on his last two starts, bumping into a handicap blot on the first occasion and going down by just a neck two weeks ago; slow starts are a problem though and he will need things to go his way; cheekpieces now join the tongue tie. |
5/1 |

2nd 8 (15) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Rather quirky sort who has become a slow-starter and is 0-12 since a successful debut at the 2024 York Dante meeting but is threatening to double his tally; met traffic issues on his way to a very notable effort at this venue (7f, good) most recently, beating all bar a handicap snip who remains unbeaten and looks a Group performer in the making; shaped as if this second attempt over 1m is well worth exploring; highly respected. |
11/2 |
|
2nd 18 (14) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Hints of promise when slowly away on last two starts, and he might not be a forlorn hope each-way if breaking on terms; however, he's 0-11 since winning on debut here in May 2024 and others are less risky. |

Record is 3-10; gelded prior to reappearance success at Kempton (7f, AW; looked better than ever) and had an excuse (raced in unfavoured group) when never landing a blow in the Victoria Cup over C&D since; could go well, provided this race pans out better. |

9th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Low-mileage 4yo who was gelded prior to justifying favouritism with 1l success at Kempton (7f) on AW/seasonal debut, opening his handicap account and taking overall record to 3-9; this Wathnan Racing runner may well be capable of further improvement; ties in closely with Mudbir on Sandown running last July; major contender. |

28th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |

Good efforts in 7f handicaps at Sandown and Goodwood last July; had excuses at Doncaster when last seen; been gelded since; on a good mark but this free-going sort could do with settling better. |

Successful over C&D on 2yo debut; 0-13 since but ran encouragingly at Windsor (6f) most recently, after a spell at Meydan; returns to this venue with a fighting chance off current mark. |

3rd 11 (8) |
15th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 12y Class 3 |
9st 0lb |
0-12 since his wide-margin debut win as a 2yo but he ended 2025 with some good runs and went close in Dubai in December (6f, good to firm); his last two runs at Meydan weren't his best but a break may have freshened him up and he is on a dangerous mark. |
