10th Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
No better than midfield in two Meydan starts; 2-2 since racing in Britain, gamely landing the Britannia at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm; turf debut) last time, albeit fortuitously as the runner-up looked unlucky; faces a tougher task on these terms but is open to further improvement. |

19th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Down the field in his Meydan races but returned from a break for British debut and he dominated throughout in that 1m maiden at Chelmsford, scoring by 3l; had the run of things that day and the handicapper has taken no chances, but he's a dark one on turf debut for a trainer who's had plenty of success at this meeting; a nagging concern is that only one recent winner emerged from a maiden or novice. |

22nd May 2025 Standard 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Showed ability when sixth in a 7f Meydan conditions race (dirt) in January; well below that level back there (1m) when last seen; if building on his original effort he should be involved but has that to prove. |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Has failed to build on an eye-catching reappearance effort but seemed to be outstayed over 1m2f most recently; unlucky second in the C&D Britannia at this meeting last year (good to firm; might well have won but for traffic issues) and looks very interesting back here, bidding for compensation. |
9/1 |

8th 9 (9) |
22nd May 2026 Soft 1m 1f 197y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Unlucky second in last year's Britannia at Royal Ascot then caught the eye on reappearance; hasn't exactly lived up to expectations in two starts since but remains of interest assuming this new scenario (steps up from 1m) prompts a positive effect; too soon to give up on him. |
7/1 |
|
7th 7 (9) |
1st May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Went close in the Britannia at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) last June on his fourth start; not seen again until a good fourth at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW) this March, despite a slow start and having to come very wide in the straight; disappointing favourite in the Lincoln at Doncaster three weeks later, perhaps with the good to soft ground against him but overall improvement is required moving from handicaps into this Group 3. |

6th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 37y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
This 3yo has very much gone the right way since an AW debut success in March, including two 1m Ascot handicap wins (another excellent run there when third in Britannia at Royal meeting); caught wide and too far back when eighth of 17 in handicap at York's Ebor meeting last month and that shouldn't be taken to suggest his improvement has come to a halt; won't need to advance his form too much to make his presence felt in Group company. |
8/1 |

8th 1 (15) |
22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Good effort in the Britannia at Royal Ascot is flanked by two Ascot wins, latest in big field on King George day (1m, good) when taking form figures to 123131; progressive and very solid. |
11/2 |

1st 8 (17) |
26th Jul 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Progressive 3yo who strolled home in a C&D handicap in May and performed even better when a close third in the Britannia here (again good to firm) the following month; that run more than justifies a further 5lb rise in the weights and he's a major player again on a course he clearly handles very well. |

9st 7lb |
Unraced on slow ground; won two handicaps in a row at Meydan (1m1f/9.5f, good) in February before Group 2 second there (1m1f, good) and he returned from a break with good third in the Listed Wolferton Stakes at Royal Ascot (1m2f, good to firm); things haven't gone to plan on his two starts since but a line can be put through Goodwood as he got no run; interesting contender. |

5th Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Won over Chester's extended 7f in May and ran well in the Bunbury Cup in July; however, he was well held in France last time and his AW record leaves a bit to be desired; needs the first-time tongue-strap (replacing cheekpieces) to have a positive effect. |

4th 10 (13) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Performed well (first and third) at Chester in last two turf attempts and may be capable of further progress returned to this sphere; helps to give his connections, who also run Aalto, a robust hand. |
9/1 |

7th 3 (7) |
27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 2 |

Good effort to win a 7.6f handicap at Chester on his reappearance and he ran to a similar level when third back there (7f) four weeks ago; today's stiffer test at the trip will suit and he has shown promise on AW. |

Won his maiden on heavy but handled faster ground when sixth of 30 in the Britannia at Royal Ascot; keen and didn't get home (lost shoe) over a mile at Killarney when long odds-on last time and gelded since; bit to prove and draw not great. |
12/1 |

3rd 1 (2) |
14th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 20y |
9st 9lb |
Won his maiden on heavy but fine on faster ground as he showed when a close sixth of 30 in the Britannia at Royal Ascot; he might have gone really close on handicap debut at Naas (1m) the time before had he been sharper from the stalls; not yet exposed and could be hard to beat in a race of this nature; stable won this 12 months ago. |
1/2 |

6th 24 (12) |
19th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Heavy-ground maiden winner who is effective on good but unraced on faster; the Group 3 he contested on reappearance was won by a Group 1 horse and he might have gone really close on handicap debut at Naas (1m) had he been sharper from the stalls; that form is working out well and he wouldn't be exposed just yet; considered. |

9st 1lb |
Went close at Newmarket (1m1f, good to firm) in May and hasn't run badly in competitive handicaps on his next two starts, including the Royal Hunt Cup over C&D, but he needs something extra in a first-time visor (replacing cheekpieces) if he's to come out on top today. |
16/1 |

7th 4 (2) |
12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Three handicap wins last year (1m, good/good to firm) and runner-up at Newmarket (1m1f, good to firm) in May on his second start this season; merely mid-division in the Royal Hunt Cup at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) last time but he's not ruled out after a break; unproven on slow ground. |
14/1 |
|
11th 15 (14) |
17th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
A regular in notable handicaps, bagging three (over 1m) during his progressive period last term and proving resurgent when close second to Erzindjan at Newmarket (1m1f) latest start; first home in the unfavoured group in the Britannia at this meeting 12 months ago; looks set to go well. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |

Lightly raced 4yo; 436 days off before his last of eight at Sandown (7f, good to soft; 10-1) 18 days ago; could have needed the run and although his dam was a 2yo 5f winner, the sire won at up to 1m2f. |

Lightly raced 4yo, last seen running well in the Britannia at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm; unraced on softer than good) when second of ten in his group; previously went down narrowly over 7f at the Curragh; returns from a long break with untapped potential and his stable in good form. |

19th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

One of two runners for Clive Cox who won this in 2003; has advanced his RPR with each start and it's interesting that he was so strong in the market for handicap debut at the Curragh (7f, good; 15-8) where he was given every chance but ultimately repelled by Iceford; won his maiden over 6f but 1m shouldn't be a problem; every chance of serving up another personal best. |

7f winner at Goodwood on reappearance and far from discredited from an unfavourable draw when upped to 1m at Royal Ascot next time; just 6-1 for a 16-runner 7f handicap back at Goodwood two weeks ago, never remotely a threat but he was messed around in the closing stages; cheekpieces go on. |

Yet to encounter ground softer than good; far from discredited from unfavourable draw upped to 1m in the Britannia at Royal Ascot last time; progressive over 7f otherwise and registered a C&D success, narrowly beating a hat-trick seeker, in his only other start this season; remains of interest. |

19th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Looked a work in progress last season before doing it easily in a 7f AW novice in September; gelded afterwards and was noticeably strong in the market when making a successful handicap debut at Goodwood (good), where he needed all of the 7f to seal the deal; 5lb higher but this extra furlong could make a huge difference to him; one of three runners for Ralph Beckett who took this race in 2019. |

Two wins in last season's 2yo campaign; reappeared with close third in the Silver Bowl Handicap at Haydock (1m) in May, a race that hasn't really worked out; ran okay when 11th of 30 in the Britannia at Royal Ascot (1m); versatile ground-wise; improvement is possible but necessary in this hot race. |

19th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Has handled good to firm and the mud; consistent last season until his heavy defeat in a Group 3; usually races prominently but had to be dropped in from a bad draw in the Silver Bowl at Haydock, so all things considered he did well to finish only a length off Teroomm; enters calculations with a talented claimer secured. |

Progressive gelding who was going back-to-back when landing valuable York handicap (1m, good to soft) at the Ebor festival last month; transitioned to Group races when pushing Persica very close at Haydock (1m, heavy) three weeks ago; those efforts came on softer ground than is forecast but it's possible he's simply improving; player. |

Strike-rate of 5-13, with four of those wins coming in eight races since gelded; tackles his first Group race after back-to-back wins in 1m handicaps at York, the latest gained in convincing fashion on good to soft (unraced on slower); with the wind in his sails he's not easily dismissed. |

Frankel colt and dam's siblings include Grade 1 and Group 3 winners; progressed in novices and the manner in which he kept on for second on his handicap debut here over 7f (good to firm) suggests he'll devour today's extra distance; going the right way and seemingly held in high regard having been towards the top of the market in all his races; firmly enters calculations. |

Arrived for the Britannia on the back of a hat-trick of wins, the last of them coming in the competitive Silver Bowl at Haydock (1m, good), but he met trouble at a crucial stage at the Royal meeting and his midfield run is best ignored; will be very dangerous if getting the breaks this time. |

All good this year and completed his hat-trick in the always-competitive Silver Bowl at Haydock (1m, good); has made a canny habit of not winning any of his races by far and could still be on happy terms with the handicapper despite a 6lb rise; a tough colt who won't be fazed by the challenge of a Britannia and he's on the shortlist for yard that won this in 2020. |

16th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Hasn't won since June 2025 but he posted creditable efforts over 1m1f at Musselburgh (good) and Glorious Goodwood (good to firm; did well to get fifth after a stumble at the start left him detached) this summer; never a threat at Redcar last time but a potential class act tackling his first 0-80. |

Hasn't won since last June but he ran well when third at Musselburgh (good) in June and should have finished even closer, when events conspired against him, before a fifth of 15 at Glorious Goodwood (also 1m1f, good to firm) last month; player from the same mark in this easier event. |

Inconsistent and his losing sequence is up to 11 races; however, he was a close third off this reduced mark at Musselburgh (1m1f, good) last time and is an each-way contender if backing up that performance. |

Won a nursery here at last year's Glorious meeting (7f, good to firm) and back on the scoresheet at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) in August; fifth of 13 at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) since and this 3yo could build on that latest performance now back up in trip; unraced on slow ground. |

Proved resurgent with success on the July course (1m, good to firm) last time, albeit off 3lb lower and with rider taking off 5lb; this looks a harder task but he's had a light campaign and may have more to offer. |

15th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

Down the field (beaten 8l) in the Britannia on his only previous attempt at 1m; this season's form figures are a tad misleading as he's not been running badly, including last time in a deep 7f handicap at Goodwood; only 4lb higher than for his nursery win and Jack Dace takes off 5lb; could be interesting. |

Two quick runs at Glorious Goodwood three weeks ago, beaten only 2l when fifth of 20 on the Wednesday (7f, good to firm) then seventh of 18 in the Golden Mile on the Friday (good to firm) when he would have been closer with a clear run; it's possible he'll be involved; unproven on slow ground. |

Tongue tied first time and left his first two efforts behind when seeing off two next-time-out winners in a 7f Newbury novice (good) in May; on the back of that he went off favourite for the 30-runner Britannia at Royal Ascot but met repeated trouble in running; evidently well regarded (has also been Group entered) and can be given another chance. |

19th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |

370,000gns yearling; first-time tongue-tie when not overly troubled at Newbury (7f novice, good) to beat a subsequent winner and he's in the right hands to keep progressing now into handicaps, especially raised to 1m; could very easily take a huge step forward, and runs here in preference to Saturday's Group 3 Jersey Stakes; dangerous; trainer won this in 2012. |
