3rd 3 (1) |
30th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
0-8 but he's run some good races, including placing in 7f handicaps in December; competitive from this mark but might be vulnerable to improvers. |
6/1 |

12th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Attractively bred grey who has improved with each of his four starts and was a close second on nursery debut at Epsom a fortnight ago (7f, good; unraced on softer), despite pulling hard; contender up 2lb. |
5/1 |

6 (1) |
28th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Handicap debutant who looks fairly solid, having made the frame over 7f on turf/AW the last twice; in good hands and may be capable of progress at this level; one to consider. |

2nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Has been described as a challenge by connections but he's a talented one and the drop to 5f suited when beating a smart rival (later runner-up at the Breeders' Cup) in a Group 3 over C&D (good; won a novice on good to firm) in October; nothing special on his recent return here but he was eased when his winning chance had gone and the return to 5f can suit; much respected. |
12/1 |

8th 13 (1) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 1lb |
Gelded prior to prevailing narrowly in the Cornwallis (5f, good; Group 3) on final 2yo start, taking record on the Newmarket tracks to 3-3; effective over 6f and looks open to further improvement; carries 3lb penalty; respected kept to this venue in first attempt against his elders. |
13/2 |
|
3 (4) |
10th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Gelded since flopping in AW Group 3 last time; recorded novice wins on the July course (6f) in last two turf attempts, leaving the impression he'll cope with this drop in trip; may do better still. |

26th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 7f 0y |
9st 1lb |
Bought for 35,000gns from Owen Burrows in July and off the mark at third attempt for Michael Grassick when making most over 7f at Gowran last month on fast ground; was out of the handicap here last time, this is more realistic. |
14/1 |
|
11th 25 (17) |
13th Sep 2026 Yielding 0m 6f 0y |
8st 7lb |
Bought for 35,000gns from Owen Burrows in July and off the mark at third attempt for Michael Grassick when making most over 7f at Gowran last month on fast ground; poor run on softer ground over same C&D since; drops in trip here and 7lb out of handicap. |
25/1 |
|
8th 2 (12) |
1st Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y |
10st 2lb |
Beaten favourite in all four handicap starts for Owen Burrows; bought for 35,000gns in July and off the mark at third attempt for Michael Grassick when scoring over C&D last month on fast ground, making most; 7lb rise for that and first run on soft ground. |

14th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Sole win was in a 6f maiden last autumn but he's on a reduced mark and was a respectable third when upped to 1m at Lingfield (AW; second-time cheekpieces) last time; this is a deeper race but he has possibilities if he can build on that last run. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 2 (1) |
1st Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has shown all his win and place form over 6f; not entirely disgraced over 1m on penultimate start but still needs to properly show that he's a miler; inconsistent this season. |
10/1 |
|
10th 14 (12) |
20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Suited by AW and won at Wolverhampton (6f maiden) in November, with two bits of form on Chelmsford Polytrack too; beaten a neck at Southwell (6f) in April but below form since over 6f, 7f and 1m, so others look more solid; wears headgear first time. |

8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 13lb |
6f novice win as a 2yo; better form when fourth in a Listed race at Chantilly (6.5f, AW) in March but less good twice since; 7f and heavy ground are valid excuses for the last two runs and he is not yet fully exposed. |
20/1 |
|
4th 4 (2) |
14th Apr 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Good fourth in Chantilly Listed contest (6.5f, AW) last month, despite having been absent since midfield effort in the 2025 Coventry; chance of landing this useful race partly depends on how well he responds to first-time headgear; steps up a tad further in trip. |
14/1 |
|
16 (12) |
17th Jun 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Beaten at Chepstow on debut but looked far more with it at Lingfield (6f, good) when dominating from the front down the 'golden highway' up the stands' rail; would probably have beaten inferior opposition no matter how he was ridden, but that didn't smack of Royal Ascot-winning material; improvement is possible but it's certainly necessary. |

19th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Scored off 1lb higher at Nottingham (8.3f, good) in May but she's not easy to predict and has finished tailed off in last two starts; still unexposed on AW but she's now 1-19 and needs a major revival back in this sphere; blinkers reapplied. |
25/1 |
|
14th 5 (4) |
10th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Has tried all trips from 5f to 1m2f, the win coming at 1m; wasn't stopping last time at Nottingham (1m2f, good to firm) when not far behind the winner so this far is worth a go. |
10/1 |
|
5th 2 (5) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Spent last year sprinting and is having a first try over this far (won over 8.3f here in the spring off 3lb lower); didn't get going until too late in a small field last time (1m) but stamina would be the concern. |
