5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Four wins in 2024 included this race on good to soft, with the other three on soft; performed near his best only a couple of times last season, which has been followed by gelding and wind operations; also now wears first-time headgear; some warning signals and he's not slipped far in the weights. |

1st Nov 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Ended last season with a couple of soft-ground wins, including edging out Peace Man in this; back to near best when fourth off top weight in warm Glorious Goodwood handicap (good) and not disgraced when fifth in Longchamp Group 3 and Goodwood Listed event since; one of two solid contenders for connections. |

2nd 1 (3) |
7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 218y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
10yo who's won a hatful of Group 3s at 1m4f-1m6f in his long and distinguished career, including at Newbury in October when last seen; has been kept to ground softer than good for a long time; kicked off that 2025 campaign with a win in this race and this star has good chance to repeat the dose. |
6/4 |

1st 3 (8) |
25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
9yo who's won a hatful of Group 3s at 1m4f-1m6f in his long and distinguished career, one over C&D; beaten a head in this race on heavy going in 2022; produced a rather disappointing show in Ascot Group 3 three weeks ago but had Listed wins over Military Academy and Mount Atlas earlier this term and holds a major chance if returning to form. |
7/2 |

4th Oct 2025 Good 1m 3f 211y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
9yo who's won a hatful of Group 3s at 1m4f-1m6f in his long and distinguished career, including this race in 2022; also won 1m4f Listed races on last three outings, including in a good scrap involving Military Academy at Goodwood in June and when that rival disappointed at Chester three weeks ago; all of his turf starts in the last six years have been on softer than good; back up to Group 3 but with leading form claims again and a tremendous attitude. |

19th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
1m4f AW Listed winner for the Gosdens but he left that yard under a cloud in the autumn; rediscovered some form at 1m2f on AW last winter but reverted to lesser efforts on his four outings this spring. |
66/1 |

7th 3 (11) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
1m4f AW Listed winner (also acts on good to soft and softer) for the Gosdens but he left that yard under a cloud in the autumn; rediscovered some form at 1m2f on AW this winter but he's been below par on his last three starts; soft ground would enhance his cause but others are more solid. |
33/1 |
|
5th 3 (4) |
2nd May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
AW Listed winner for the Gosdens in November 2024 but he hasn't been near that form since a Listed second last June; second and third places early this year came in small fields and other options look more solid. |

17th Feb 2026 2m 0f 69y Class 3 |
11st 8lb |
Very smart Flat form in 2024, including on soft ground; not as good now judged on his exploits for current yard, though ran encouragingly to be an 11l third (led 3f out) at Wincanton behind Saturday's Victor Ludorum runner-up Pourquoi Pas Papa; now has to build on that. |
13/2 |

3rd 6 |
29th Jan 2026 Heavy 1m 7f 50y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Dual 1m4f Listed winner in France; however, his two British Flat runs last year were underwhelming and he ended up tailed off on hurdling debut at Chepstow having been weak in the market; good bit to prove now. |
6/1 |
|
13th 2 (4) |
2nd Aug 2025 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
5-14 in France for Andre Fabre, with five seconds too and they included one in a Group 3 and one in a 1m6f Listed race (both on very soft); bought for 220,000gns in January, followed by a never-dangerous last of five in Listed race here (1m4f, soft) in June but he presumably needed that run. |
