20th Jun 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
110,000gns half-brother to three winners, notably Enfjaar (7f-1m2f; RPR 117); 20-1 for novice here (1m, soft) last October but won that nine-runner race in impressive style from off the pace; finished last of five in Group 3 at Sandown (1m2f, good; 3-1) on reappearance in April but it's still early days and he sets a high standard back in calmer waters; strongly respected on first run since being gelded. |

110,000gns Almanzor half-brother to three winners, notably Enfjaar (7f-1m2f; RPR 117); 20-1 for novice at Newmarket (1m, soft) last October but won that nine-runner race in good style from two pretty useful rivals, coming from off the pace to lead well over 1f out; that was a striking debut. |

Poor maiden on the Flat and 150-1 when pulled up here two weeks ago. |

31st Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
8st 4lb |
Maiden; two fair efforts on the AW towards the end of last year, including a C&D third, but not so good since. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
0-11 on the Flat and has been contesting low-grade handicaps at about 2m; unlikely to be winning this on hurdle debut. |

4th Nov 2025 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Solid third at Newmarket (1m2f; form has substance) in latest turf start; gelded since; leading player on the figures and Toby Moore rode two winners for the yard last week. |

20th Sep 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Quite weak in the betting for his 1m2f novices at Nottingham and on the July course and was comfortably held on both occasions; Mothecombe could be the yard's main hope. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 15y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Ex-William Haggas; followed up his easy Leicester win in June (1m2f, good; made virtually all) by finishing runner-up off a 10lb higher mark at Goodwood last month; up another 3lb and tries 1m4f for the first time; interesting. |
6/1 |

2nd 14 (8) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
1-8 for William Haggas; second run for new connections when he resumed improvement to make all in ten-runner race at Leicester (1m2f, good; acts on good to firm) in June, well clear through the final 2f; those wins are two of the four times he's made the running, which will be more difficult in this larger field and after a 10lb rise but he looked good last time. |
