3rd Oct 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
One of only three defeats in 11 starts came in this race 12 months ago, despite delivering career-best form at the time in finishing second; she returns on the back of a faultless campaign, the last of three Group 1s her most commanding performance yet in the Matron Stakes at Leopardstown; she sets the bar high as it is, and her upward curve might not yet have reached its peak; if holding her form she should win. |
4/9 |

1st 1 (9) |
12th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Seven-time winner has shown improved form this year to win all four starts; began with a Goodwood Listed race before taking the Group 2 Duke of Cambridge Stakes, then claiming the Falmouth Stakes and Prix Rothschild; has beaten Precise in both those Group 1s, but only narrowly last time; has to remain at her best to do so again, but is still the one to beat. |

1st 1 (5) |
10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Runner-up in the Group 1 Sun Chariot on the other Newmarket course last October (1m, good) and this lightly raced 4yo made it two from two for this year when winning the Group 2 Duke Of Cambridge at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) last month, travelling well to beat Jancis by just under 2l; that latest performance suggests she's capable of landing a Group 1 prize; key player. |

24th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Runner-up in all five runs this year, at odds of 2-9, 11-10, 10-11 and 5-4 last four occasions; that's from just six races in total and she went down by just a neck over 1m2f on last two outings (on good to soft latest, unraced on worse) but she needs to find a bit extra on this handicap debut. |
8/1 |
|
8 (2) |
22nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Runner-up in all four runs this year, beaten at odds of 2-9, 11-10 and 10-11 on last three occasions; stays 1m2f but slower than good ground would be a query; should give her running but vulnerable to improvers. |
5/2 |
|
2 (4) |
11th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Fourth here over 7f on debut last November and improved on that when runner-up to subsequent Listed winner Blue Bolt at Newbury (1m, good) in June; held in second when 2-9 at Yarmouth in July and again found one too good at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) 28 days ago; this looks a good opportunity. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Lightly-raced British challenger is a three-time winner; 2-4 on turf, the wins coming off 81 in a Salisbury handicap in May (1m2f, gd-fm) and a Listed race at Haydock later that month (10.5f, gd-sft); 3.75l fourth of seven in a Group 3 on the AW at Newcastle last time; place claims. |
7/1 |

4th 5 (1) |
26th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
4yo who has raced only five times, winning three of them (including on Polytrack; unraced on Tapeta); improved again to land 1m2f Listed race at Haydock and, while Diamond Rain has stronger form, this filly is certainly progressive and could yet scale loftier heights. |
9/2 |
|
1st 4 (4) |
23rd May 2026 Soft 1m 2f 100y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Made it 2-4 when scoring easily on this month's handicap and seasonal debut at Salisbury (1m2f, good to firm; unraced on slow ground); had just three rivals to beat and takes a steep rise in grade today, but this half-sister to her stable's Group 1 winner Dreamloper could have plenty more to offer. |

3rd Oct 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Three wins as a 3yo; ran right up to her best when close third in the Kensington Palace at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm; first-time tongue-tie) but hasn't kicked on, disappointing in a German Listed race and again back at Ascot (handicap) four weeks ago when the tongue-tie was back on (did some hanging); upped in trip and has questions to answer all of a sudden. |
20/1 |
|
8th 2 (2) |
5th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Two handicap wins last year; took a big step forward from this year's seasonal return when running a corker for close third in the Kensington Palace over C&D (tongue tied) in June; never really got going when beaten 15l in German Listed race (favourite) four weeks ago but she's a player back over this C&D. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 13 (18) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Largely progressed well in 2025 (a three-time winner at 1m-1m1f) but nowhere near her best when remote third in 1m1f Hamilton handicap on reappearance and the yard's main riders look elsewhere; tongue tied first time. |

19th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Has shown some ability over 7f/1m at novice level while shaping as if this drop to sprinting, combined with first-time hood, may well prompt progress; tongue-tie also added; interesting. |
7/1 |

5 (1) |
4th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 212y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
She has run to a modest level in two runs this year (7f, AW and 1m, good) but she is bred to do better at some point. |

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

Weak 20-1 chance when beaten about 12l at Kempton (7f AW) and was given every chance; others preferred. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Looked promising when making a winning debut at Newbury (7f, good) in April last year, but hasn't built on it in her six outings since; needs the application of cheekpieces to make a difference. |
14/1 |
|
7th 1 (7) |
11th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Won over C&D (good) last April on debut; hasn't really progressed and has finished merely seventh in 1m6f/1m2f Listed races on her last two starts (tailed off last time); however, it's possible this half-sister to connections' crack 6f/7f performer Sacred will appreciate the drop back in trip. |
8/1 |
|
7th 3 (2) |
23rd May 2026 Soft 1m 2f 100y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Impressive win on debut at Newbury (7f, good) last April; 0-4 since (including in two Listed races) and has something to find in today's company, but this lightly raced half-sister to connections' Group 2 winner Sacred is in top hands and may be able to take a sizeable step forward at some point. |

2nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 16y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Shaped well on debut when fifth of 14 in a 7f novice at Kempton AW in May but below that form on turf twice since; still early days and she makes her handicap debut; any market move should be noted. |
11/1 |

7th 3 (2) |
12th Jun 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Shaped well on debut when fifth of 14 in a 7f novice at Kempton and was soon on the back foot after early interference when 4-1 for a 7f maiden at Chester; capable of improvement. |
33/1 |
|
7th 5 (2) |
31st May 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
16-1 and green, shaped encouragingly when a debut fifth of 14 in 7f novice at Kempton 16 days ago, running on late; this Pinatubo filly is open to a fair bit of progress so needs considering. |

1st Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Best efforts have come here and she appreciated the step back up from 7f, minus the usual tongue-tie, when winning over C&D a fortnight ago; that was only a 0-55 and she's 4lb higher today but she's lightly raced and may be capable of better. |
2/1 |
|
9 (9) |
18th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
0-6; form since handicapping includes two encouraging efforts at Kempton (7f); this return to 1m is worth exploring; interesting. |
4/1 |
|
8 (8) |
3rd Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Best effort when third in lower grade over C&D on penultimate start (handicap debut); chance of winning largely depends on how well she responds to added cheekpieces. |
